[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's suppose your kid's teacher has 120 students and each of them turn in an assignment each day. If the teacher takes just one minute to read it over and one minute to comment, grade, and record that assignment, that's 240 minutes, or 4 hours of grading. While it's theoretically possible to fit that into a day with planning periods, before-school hours, and after-school work, it's not the highest and best use of a teacher's time. Better to have the teacher planning engaging lessons, meeting with students who have fallen behind, communicating with parents, and grading fewer but more meaningful assignments. [/quote] Then don’t assign homework! I am ok with not receiving homework but if children have it and do it, then it needs to be fully graded. How will the child know what he or she is doing right if no one corrects them? [/quote]
