[quote=Anonymous]K teacher and mom of a k'er...I am firmly in the "that's too much" camp. Time to subtly drop it. When first grade begins I'd ease into it too. Also check your county's guidelines because sometime teachers are pressured to assign more than is really reasonable. Also, what takes one child 10 minutes can take another an hour. If you just can't make yourself ignore it, I would set the timer for 10 minutes and whatever gets done in that time is what gets turned in. You can include a note to the teacher explaining your new policy. I'd also caution you on forcing the reading. The kids who really love to read (and this read at higher levels) are the ones whose parents were most relaxed about it.[/quote]
