@teaching_mrsh: Homework in K-12 grades is not research supported and therefore doesn’t make sense. Now, if you don’t finish something we started in class - that’s a little different. #teachingmrsh #homework #teacherlife
totally agree. but I do want my students to read every day.

I try to bring this up at my work at least once a year.... we are wasting paper. we are wasting time... the kids that are going to do it don't need to do it cuz they already understand because I have parental help at home.,. it's silly

I don’t give it. Their job is school. No one wants to do work at home and not be paid for it. They shouldn’t have to either

THIS. I only assign homework when they're finishing something they ran out of time for in class and, even then, I tell them they can bring it out for help the next day instead.

Agreed. Parents were shocked at our back to school night when my team and I let them know we basically assign no homework (aside from work that isn’t getting finished due to a student choosing to not work) like “what?” Just read. Just read. Please just read!

My kids are at a school that doesn’t do homework. Mostly love it but one of my kids struggles in math and working on the concepts with her at home for extra practice has made all the difference. I think it depends on your kid and their learning style.

I only assign reading as homework. Everything else they have time to work on in class. If they choose not to use that time. That’s on them.

I have a few learning differences and in high school I told my math teacher "if homework is practice and a test proves I know it why do I have to practice if I can prove I know it" she said fine I will make your test score your homework score from now on and I passed with a B+ not a single day of homework done I am greatful for understanding teachers

YES. I tell my students I don’t take work home, so I don’t expect them to

ain't a secret. next parent that asks for home work will get "I don't believe in homework. if you believe your child needs extra, there is always extra available online."

homework is sent home (1st grade), but not required to be returned. it's for practice, but honestly, he just gets frustrated and I get frustrated and it just isn't going to get done.

if a student wants to look things up at home, or go deeper into their studies, that is different than being required to do work that mimics what was already done at school.

also, school doesn't need to be so long. And connection needs to be emphasized more.

The research is a bit muddier than you’re letting on. Cite your sources.
