[quote=Anonymous]My son had serious issues with HW in 1st grade. So we did it 10 minutes at a time. 2nd grade 15 minutes at a time. 3rd grade 20 minutes at a time. I never worried about grades but did worry about building good work habits. We write each thing we need to do and the time we will spend and then cross off what we have done (it is a little satisfying to see the list disappear). Timers also worked well. He is in 8th grade and can do 1 hour at a time. Though he still does not like it. He did end up being dyslexic (diagnosed in 3rd grade) but he is a diligent student and gets good grades (A's, B's and C - in liturature... generally). [/quote]
