[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My first grader has a weekly planner. This helps. He usually has 6 pages of math, one book to read and write on, one short page to read and answer questions on, and 10 spelling words. He loves math and gets the 6 pages done in about30 min. The book was a fight for the first two months, but now he does it on his own rather quickly. It's all about making it part of a routine. It doesn't need to be fun or exciting.[/quote] For the record. This would not have been developmentally appropriate for my son at this age. Not every child can read in first. I do support some homework, particularly developmentally appropriate reading support, but your list would have killed us. Said son does very well in school now (middle school). Not straight As, but more As than Bs. [/quote]
