[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah because knowing how to make a model of the solar system out of coat hangers and marshmallows is really important once you get to college. I think it may be the quality of the homework that makes people crazy. Learning to write a coherent 10 page paper = yes. Filling out worksheet after worksheet = NO![/quote]o depends on the worksheet. In math, it is important to pick up speed and accuracy. Writing is another skill where you get better and better by doing it. If the teacher doesn't assign enough homeowrk, I do. I don't see a reasonable amount of homework (like about 60-90 minutes) as a "destroyer of childhoods." Rather, it's an integral part of it. [/quote]
