Hey Kitchenwitch - how is the war on homework going? nt

1. Much better this week

Still too much, but not nearly as much as last week.

2. Keep fighting the good fight.

Sometimes I felt that school was interfering with my children's education!

There was one junior high math teacher who sent home the same 20 page packet of problems over Thanksgiving with every one of my six kids over a 12 year span! Homework over holidays and vacations should be prohibited, especially long term "projects"!

3. A lot of teachers assign things due when breaks end

but they usually assign these things weeks in advance (at least mine did)
