[quote=Anonymous]Grade 6.  In whatever they call accelerated math right now (AIM7?  AMP7?) + HIGH.  No work needing to be done at home except bits of documented practice time for music.  Always has all As + 1 B at any given moment (which course has a B changes from time to time, often due to not hitting "submit" on a completed assignment).  I'm sensing weakness on the math front, though.

A teacher friend told me block scheduling can affect work patterns, that with those longer class sessions it is sometimes a very logical choice for teachers to use some of that time for the students to just do work, hence less homework.

I'm fine with it.  I think middle school is a vulnerable enough human stage that I'd rather DC come out with a healthy sense of self and some real academic and extracurricular interests.  Plenty of time to learn more stuff in HS.  (I teach college, so I see the outcomes every day.  My wish list for what they could do better in college isn't going to be too seriously impacted by MS homework.)[/quote]
