[quote=Anonymous]Your kids will be fine, though there will undoubtedly be an adjustment period. Our kids did both at various times, and they had homework in both public and private. Here's an example that will show how it's just different. (not necessarily better or worse) 4th grade public: Eight math problems. Five are simple problems; two are word problems; one is a sort of theoretical "explore this" question. Prepare for spelling quiz on Friday. Color a map for Social Studies. 4th grade private: 20 math problems, 18 are simple, two are word problems. Use each of 20 words in a sentence. Sentences must be properly constructed and work must be neat. Social Studies: Read a chapter and answer questions in the textbook, again with proper structure and neat work. [/quote]
