Why is FCPS abandoning a practice which has been proven to improve student's learning?  (it is not difficult to figure out)[/quote]

It has been proven to NOT improve learning.[/quote]
The general consensus is that homework does correlate with achievement in middle and high school. Results are less clear for elementary, however, that may be influenced by the fact that struggling readers are assigned additional homework.[/quote]

Makes zero sense to me how extra practice could NOT be beneficial for ES kids. There must be some other things going on with these studies as they just does not make sense. [/quote]

It’s not beneficial if they are doing the extra practice incorrectly. [/quote]

Is it likely that they would do every single homework assignment incorrectly?

Is that really your objection or are you just trolling?  Do you have kids?  Have you ever done anything yourself in your own life?  Some of it will be wrong and some of it will be right.  That's how you learn.  [/quote]
