[quote=Anonymous]5 or 6 subjects a night still doesn't tell us how heavy the load is. My child has 5 or 6 subjects a night and typically this is not a heavy load, despite her sport. I think we have had two nights that I felt it was a challenge to complete the work and still meet her usual bedtime. Nor does "hours of homework" describe the load itself. Rather, it tells us how long it takes your DC to do the work. Another child may accomplish the tasks faster. Can you actually describe the work? Such as... 1. ELA: Read a chapter independently. 2. Spelling: Study 10 words for tomorrow's quiz. 3. Math: Complete subtraction problems 1-26. 4. Social studies: Label a map of Maryland with all of the counties and their capital cities. 5. Science: Draw a diagram of a butterfly and label its body parts.[/quote]
