Homework Kindergarten

They will start introducing homework in 5th grade, so they’re ready when they hit middle school. Can you share any reputable sources on this, please?I don’t really have any stats on how it’s worked so far, but I can say personally with my son, he tests a grade above in most areas. I'd like to research this more.edit: considering the downvote, I wanted to clarify I wanted more information not because I doubt what /u/tropicalstream is saying but because I don't feel like homework in kindergarten is beneficial, so my belief falls in line with those homework policies.My kiddo just brought home a back of Halloween related sheets he did IN school on things related to tracing words, letters, sticking numbers, grouping etc. My son’s school started a No Homework Policy when he started kinder a couple years ago.

How did/do you balance homework after your child has been at school all day? Kindergarten is learn thru play and let's be honest, is a slightly more structured and academically educational version of daycare centers.

You should read to kid everynight and make regular day to day things a learning opportunity but sheets and such for homework is ridiculous.

He was tired and I should have noticed much sooner that it just wasn't benefitting him anymore.

We had a snuggle and then I finished the rest of the homework for him after he went to bed.

They also want the parent to read out loud to their child every night, which we do anyway.

If they sent home as much homework as you say, I just wouldn’t make him do it. This afternoon, my son was spelling out words and numbers with Smarties candies from his Halloween basket.

Seeing that tear hit the page of homework for my tore me apart which is what prompted this post.

I love that you're advocating for your son by not letting him reach that point.

We do the homework together in the kitchen at the island while my husband cooks dinner.

I usually add on a little extra edutainment type stuff, like not worksheets but we write a story or play a math-heavy board game or something. So the assigned stuff is about 15 minutes but we probably do overall about 30 minutes of reinforcing learning concepts.
