TO KEEP IN ...
By Samantha

Clip to ScrapBook   
If you have time read the book The End of Homework, How Homework Disrupts Families, Overburdens Childern, and Limits Learning, by: Etta Kralovec & John Buell. It is a real eye opener. There is research to back up the no homework idea. This will be something new in my room. In the past I gave homework nightly. Iam just worried my students will think this year is all fun and games, and we'll get off on the wrong foot this year (in 2 weeks, that is).
