I was worried enough by DS1 assuring me he'd learned "nothing" so far this term. But my worries have been considerably augmented by his first piece of homework this term, which as I say essentially consisted of the six times table plus colouring all the numbers from one to 100 which are divisible by six.
This is just risible for Yr 5, though, isn't it?
Is it worth speaking to the teacher, or am I just going to put her back up? None of the DSs have had her before, so she's an unknown quantity. DS1 does usually get some enrichment maths, but he hasn't been told of any so far this term.

DS1 is in Yr 5. His first piece of homework this term consisted of the six times table, plus some colouring in. What am I to make of this?
