WEEKLY HOMEWORK
By HEIDI

With kids involved in so many activities after school (hockey, girl guides, Karate, etc), our school decided to help parents out by making the school-wide decision to send home a homework sheet on Monday that is due on Friday. Parents can then schedule regular homework time for their child that fits with the child's schedule. We encourage families to spend a few minutes each day on the homework, but I know some do it all at once. The thing is... imagine the child who was at a sitter's until 6 p.m., then ate and left home to get to the pool, had swim practice until 7 p.m., only gets home around 8p.m.... when will the homework happen. If your teaching is truly child-centered I think this is osmething to consider.
