[quote=Anonymous]NP here-while the pp is well intended, this advice does not work, I am afraid, at Basis-if one is "working ahead" in math like Basis parents suggest doing, studying/reviewing for the tests and quizzes and doing homework each night all for the following day and studying every day for tests and quizzes to come later during the week for concepts they have not yet gone over in class and where exact verbage is integral to doing well on said quiz or test, how on earth does this achieve anything? You are then spending more time on hw every night, not less, and DC is "guessing on what they need to know for the tests and quizzes that they are studying well in advance for, since the ideas for most of those tests and quizzes have not been introduced in full yet. The guessing and teaching oneself instead of reviewing notes means you are spending more-not less on homework, and probably learning things in ways other than how the teacher wants you to. [/quote]
