Reply To: Is homework for our children actually important? Does it make any difference?

I went to public schools and I agree with AAQs original premise. I read a lot from the Imas complaining about homework. I have no input as todays Jewish schools handle it. When I was in school my HW from Jr High to HS was read and be able to discuss the stuff in class or perform the math functions. I had integrated core classes so science, maths, foreign language and latin, chem, lit and history all integrated different facets of other curriculum.
