[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have two in aps - 3rd and 1st. There was definitely a huge tone shift this year with the 3rd grader’s teachers. Of course, I am on the opposite side as OP - I think homework other than reading in elementary is totally bananas.[/quote] Our APS elementary has some homework in the upper grades. Most often the homework is having kids finish math or writing assignments that didn't get done in class. My kid works quickly, so she rarely has this, but some kids end up with stuff to finish almost every night. A friend with a kid with ADHD says they spend a lot of time every night finishing work. They also have to study for tests many weeks. This has been good for my kid. She had zero idea how to make herself learn something and it's been helpful for her to try different methods to remember the information. It really is better than spending even more class time on review.[/quote]
