Well I guess I should have read your blog and visited the class
projects you have been doing. It sounds like it is working and students
are responding. I am curious of the per cent of students who do well with this home work theory. Would you let me know. I do have some fifth graders who always complain about the materials their parents have to go out and by on a short notive to complete home work assignments and then what ever material that is remaining is wasted and discarded. That seems to be an issue. I like the e-mail computer link idea to send the teacher the finished work. I myself am always looking for more ways to help my after school program students when they come in to do their home work and projects.

Thanks for the information, Gloria Papelian

I think if this new idea would be fine for some students,
and on the other hand those students who don’t do home work now would fall behind in learning to be responsible and independent for getting assignments and home work in on time. I as a parent fortunately worked around my children’s school schedule and I think that more parents need to take responsibility for ensuring that their children doing what they need to do instead of putting the burden the teaching system.

Thank you,
