9. How much homework???
Homework will be needed when students need more practice work at home, a student is falling behind on an assignment, or to gather information from home.
If the class works hard then there should be no need to assign homework.
If you do not complete your work you need to put it in your ketchup folder finish later or afterschool
Any homework that is late or not handed in will need to be finished during recess, or a decided time between the teacher and student
