[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, I also have a sixth grader at Deal and we have found the amount of homework to be just about right - typically about 45 min. a night, or even slightly less. There are bigger projects sometimes, but we are also pleasantly surprised that these projects have involved a significant amount of in-class preparation, planning, and execution, and the remaining work that needs to be done at home has been done with NO parental input. The projects also seem interesting and actually tied to the curriculum. It is a marked change from the JKLMM we came from, where "projects" seemed to be almost entirely parent-designed and -executed. To mirror what another poster said, if you're having a dramatically different experience, it may well be your child rather than the program.[/quote]
