[quote=Anonymous]I like my kids having to practice math via worksheets. I know some people consider it busy work, but I want them to remember how to do, for example, two digit multiplication or long division or a problem where you add and simplify fractions next year long after the unit is over. They won't remember well without practice, even if they get it right this second. I'm more meh on reading homework, to include the whole "read 20 minutes whatever you want" thing. My kids are pretty good readers without that, so it's no impact. I would jump for joy if there were grammar assignments or graded written paragraphs that had to make an actual logical argument in upper elementary. [/quote]
