Default How much homework?

How much homework do your kids have?
Here we seem to have none in K, but a lot in first grade. Second grade is not bad, one worksheet and 15 minutes of reading a night. My son usually does it on the bus. My middle school and high schooler seem to have very little, which surprises me. I remember having quite a bit at that age, yet both are getting A's and B's. So how much in your school?

I guess it depends on the kind of school my son who is home schooled through Agora has lots of work to do everyday and technically its all home work. My daughter goes to a magnet school or a public school for art and she has lots too. I would say an over whelming amount but enough that she should look busy after school. However i find that alot of kids these day do their home work in school or in class when its due... or they just don't do it be cause its only 20 percent of their overall class grade.

The most popular guideline for the right amount of homework is 10 minutes each night for each grade. Therefore, your first-grader should have 10 minutes of homework; it would be 30 minutes for the third-grader and 70 minutes for the seventh-grader. While guidelines are a good idea, teachers will assign work at different rates depending on what they're doing in the classrooms.
