[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you counting the reading and math time? Sometimes it’s independent work and sometimes it’s teacher- led, but it still would count as instruction. That adds up to about 3 hours. I’m guessing that the science, social studies, and perhaps other instruction periods would include activities that could add up to a total of 3.5. [/quote]

I don’t get your math. If the child is working alone, that’s not instructional time. Even on OPs schedule, if it’s the child’s day for both reading and math groups, it’s well below 3.5 hours.[/quote]

I am counting the independent work as "instructional time".  Students frequently do independent work in their classrooms while teachers work with other groups of students in the classroom.  I don't see this as being any different. [/quote]

can you help a student doing independent work if they have a question? If a student gets stuck, can they receive help? If the answer to either is no, it's homework renamed to sound palatable [/quote]
