Also, if you think there is a lot of homework in high school, wait until they get to college!  |
I hear what you are saying. And like I said in my OP, I am not a teacher so I do not know how things go in the classroom...but just as you said...if they are messing around and do not finish something in class, they bring it home to work on. MY problem here is that her teacher has not EVER sent her work home with her that she doesn't finish. instead...she waits until the last 6 weeks of school and sends home 20+ pages of work for her to do. like I said, if she had been sending this stuff home daily, I would have known there was a problem and could have been working on correcting the problem with my daughter. That is where my personal frustrations lie....it is rather irritating.
I have wondered if I should change her teacher...but then I realized that in the 12+ years she will be in school, she will have teachers that we do not like....it's just all part of it. So I didn't want to yank her from this teacher, but I have no problem letting the teacher know when I am not happy about something.
