[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've never gotten any significant homework from FCPS. Just read for xx minutes or a couple worksheets. We've had to supplement the whole time. [/quote] Why do you feel you need to supplement homework? I'm genuinely curious. I'm in the "less hw is better" camp. [/quote] We believe in mastery of each level of knowledge. Practice makes perfect, that kind of thing. School days are short and infrequent so outside school we try to balance their time and spend 2 hours on the brain (home work) 2 hours for exercise (hockey, baseball, etc) and 2 hours for fun & relaxation (whatever they want). Double each on the weekends, summer, and other days off. (it was half that in K since we wanted them to get 12 hours sleep) The schedule's not always perfect but it works pretty well for us. YMMV.
