[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school is very clear that they expect elementary parents to be involved in homework. We are supposed to help kids correct mistakes and then write the teacher a note to explain any problems the kids are having with the work. While I would be perfectly fine if they waited until later elememtary to assign homework, I do think it is my job as a parent to be involved in this sort of thing. You really do have to plan for it. [/quote] That's fine. But then provide me with a textbook or other teaching material so I know what was explained to my kid and can explain it again. I don't want to confuse my child if I don't know how somethinging is taught. There really needs to be a set curriculum across the state with learning materials and not just the assessments that are sent home. So I know that in first half of grade one my kid is supposed to learn such and such method of subtracting and such and such method of reading comprehension. [/quote]
