[quote=Anonymous][quote]Her homeroom teacher is of the opinion that homework at the fourth grade level has not been shown to increase achievement levels.[/quote] OP here, I also agree that excessive homework at the forth grade would be ridiculous, but I am suspicious of the lack of homework and written work that is coming home. Having had other kids in the regular program at this school there is a huge difference between the amount of feedback provided in the HGC versus the regular classrooms. The teacher conference was useless. The teacher provided a work sample with an I, could not tell me why my child got an I because she did not have the original assignment. She's also been cagey when directly asked questions about my sons progress, "he's doing fine" without providing any specifics when directly asked a question. They are assigned World Wise every week but she only grades one section, does not have time to grade anymore than that. [/quote]
