[quote=Anonymous][quote]Yet DCUM has posters who proudly state they are anti-homework for early grades, research shows it's not appropriate, they don't like their child being pushed so young blah blah blah. The double standard starting as early as K is so interesting[/quote] So, you want your five year old in school all day doing "academics" and then you want him to come home and do homework? Really? I have no problem with a homework folder for K, if it is something like reading a book with your parent every day--counting something, etc. Something that takes a very short period of time and requires that the parent understand what the child is learning at school. Same for first grade-- maybe a five minute worksheet at home, just for review and to let the parent see what is going on. If you expect a young child to be at school all day and then come home and do homework, please let me know when he plays?[/quote]
