[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a teacher and my kids didn’t do homework in elementary school. Research doesn’t support it and it’s generally useless. I sent a nice note to their teachers at the beginning of the year letting them know my kids wouldn’t be doing homework. Never got pushback. Maybe some judgement, but I couldn’t care less. Older two are at top colleges and I have zero regrets. [/quote] Doesn’t this assume they are doing something at school during school hours though? I was jealous of the parents who had kids in the other teacher’s class because they got a math worksheet once a week, English worksheet a couple times a month, and wrote a Friday morning page at school every week. I wanted homework because my kid did basically no writing at school or through homework (there wasn’t any) in 2nd grade. We taught him double and triple digit addition and subtraction at home because they weren’t doing it at school. [/quote]
