[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] I agree for elementary kids, and for kids that lost internet or power, this sucks. However, my son is in middle school and the time has been great for him to work on two big long term projects he has due in late January. However, it seems unfair because other kids without power and internet are deprived of that catch up opportunity. That’s great he’s working on projects, but that still doesn’t make these instructional teaching days if you really think about it. They are snow days, plain and simple.[/quote] No, it doesn't make them instructional days, but IMO, he has too much home/independent work for a seventh grader, so I'd rather he have this time to do it, rather than be in school all day and then have to do it. I didn't have this much work when I was in high school (at a math and science magnet high school in another state).[/quote] Totally agree. Not sure if he’s at GWMS but I found homework absolutely excessive there for our kids, and that was before block scheduling, which hopefully makes it a little better. My kids had hours of homework every night, even in 6th grade. Good luck to your kiddo![/quote]
