[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just can't stomach supplementing at home. School ought to be able to teach my kid what he needs to know, at an adequately challenging level, in 7 hours plus reasonable homework time. [/quote] I feel this way too. Kids should have time to play and just be kids for Christ sake. [/quote] In theory, I agree. In practice, it depends upon the classroom cohort. If everyone in the classroom can perform at and above grade level this works just fine. If a significant percentage of the classroom is bringing their personal trauma (not their fault) with them, then the learning experience for everyone will be compromised - even those who could otherwise perform above expectations.[/quote]
