[quote=Anonymous]It is easy to simply opt out of homework in K-2 at TPES. As long as your kiddo understands the material, there is no need to reinforce with a worksheet at home, and we haven't ever had any teachers worry about it. To get more movement, because outdoor time is limited, walk to and from school if you can. Plenty of people walk with their kindergarteners, it is a mile for us and no problem. That also avoids your kids watching cartoons while they wait for the bus at the end of the day. As for screens in class, it depends on the teacher but there is a huge flatscreen that takes the place of a blackboard and they write on that and show visuals. It is actually kind of cool. But the reality is that screens are integrated into the curriculum. I wish there was more physical activity, but that is just the reality of public school these days. [/quote]
