[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here. Talk to the teacher. Ask how long it should take. I tell my parents, "homework should take 10 minutes. If it takes longer, stop and write me a note: 'Larla could not finish the homework'." FWIW, that sounds like a LOT of homework. Be kind and honest and the teacher will listen. I sure hope she does! :) If not, do what you can and keep writing notes "we made it this far with homework tonight" an staple it all together, or whatever. I'd be sad if I knew my student was spending hours on homework.[/quote] This! And most schools in elementary are not using homework for a grade other than participation if any- there's no way to know how much a kid did on his own. Talk to the teacher, they are usually very reasonable. They want your kid to be happy and successful![/quote]
