I do not give him homework. I do not see any point, neither does most research on the matter. The students who do not actually need the extra work usually do it, and the ones that could use the extra practice usually do not. Teachers usually give repetitive tasks just to keep parents happy. It also disadvantages the students from homes with one parent or two working parents. And really students spend a ridiculous amount of time in classes. I do very little work outside of hours so why the heck should they. HOWEVER, all that being said, it was super cute to see how excited (although he pretended not to be) Sebastian was about his first homework. To draw pictures about his family. Well he was super excited until Fraser knocked at the door for a play and then he was off!
