[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really struggling getting my 5 year old's K homework done each night. We don't get home until around 6:30. Before he had homework every night, it was a struggle just to get him and my 2 year old fed and ready for bed in time (with a little play time). Now, with homework in the mix, it's crazy. I've had to push bedtime to later. AND, the winter break homework "packet" was insane! We brought it on vacation with us, but still didn't finish it and had to spend another hour on it after getting back. Ridiculous. [/quote] Winter break homework packet? In K? Your child must go to Beauvoir. :D Mine is in 2nd grade in MCPS and her WEEKLY 'homework' consists of two A4-sized worksheets; she's done with them in 15 minutes. I, for one, tend to think this is ridiculous. Second-graders are old enough to study independently to reinforce skills they've learn in the classroom. No wonder tests scores in reading in math are so abominable![/quote]
