Homework, Homework and More Homework!



Okay so this is the 2nd full week of school and Cole has had homework everyday except last Friday. The teachers told us during the open house that they would have homework 2-4 times a week. It is work that is done in 15 minutes, but wow what an adjustment for the parents!!! We are so used to enjoying our time outside and just going with the flow... now we have to manage dinner, homework and baths by 8pm every night. I think the adjustment might be harder on the parents than the children. The other night the kids and I ventured to Freeport as I was in need of velcro for my daycare displays... Needless to say that I felt rushed. I knew where I needed to go and that we needed to grab supper, but I also knew that homework and baths were waiting at home. The teachers let us know that we will only be getting more with spelling tests coming in the 2nd quarter. Now I know why I dreaded school so much... Homework every night!
