DD has to read (sometimes 'at least twice') her Guided Reading title (usually 25-30 pages long) and answer on average 3-4 questions about it (1-line answers usually, but not always) by Wednesday.
Then she has 10 spellings to learn each week, and is supposed to write them out twice as practice before the test at school each Friday.
Now, she also has to log on to the Mathletics website to complete '3 x 10-minute' sessions per week.
Is this the norm?! I work PT so she is in after-school care 3 days a week till 6pm so no time there; I can't imagine how parents who work FT squeeze it in. At the weekend, I guess. It still seems like an awful lot for a just-turned-6-year-old. Mind you, I had no homework at primary school EVER, so in comparison to that I suppose anything's going to seem like a lot (ah, the halcyon days of 80s education...)
