[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kindergarten homework is good for developing handwriting skills and the all-important skill of following directions to finish a simple task through to completion. A single worksheet page where the child needs to write a few words and solve single-digit addition problems is not going to rob Larlo of his childhood. The Venn diagram of people who redshirt spring birthdays and people who decry homework in K has a very big overlap. They are basically people who are terrified of their child growing up.[/quote] Kindergarten homework should be the least of OP’s concerns. The bigger problem is public schools have moved away from homework and text books for pretty much all grades below high school. Even at the high school level, there is little being assigned outside of school maybe with AP classes being the exception.[/quote]
