RE: homework - one more thing

[Guest guest]

Hi Again --

I forgot to tell you they are looking at an assistive technology device for

so he doesn't have to do all that writing. He gets similar homework

to what you are describing and it takes hours. They need to get him at the

right level which apparently they have lost him in the shuffle. Lake Drive

is known for that. You really have to make a big stink about it.

homework

hi all, I need to ask those of you who have older kids or anyone who has any

ideas about homework.

it is really becoming a pain in the a@# to do social studies and science. he

cannot read it--he is at a first grade reading level--maybe, and doing 4-5th

grade social studies and science. which is wonderful, but he cannot read the

info and then he comes home with pages of questions to be answered about

what they are talking about and they need to be in complete --full sentences

and guess who writes them? I did 4/5 grade already. basically, I am doing

his work. I try to make him read the sentences--the answers--1/2 of it he

has no clue what it says and for him to write it or even type it, a half

hours homework would be hours.

I know it will only get worse as he goes on--it's not that I don't want to

help him, but even the math I write the answers. any suggestions?

thanks,
