To the best of my knowledge, the more you do in anything, the better you get. Homework seemed to serve us well until all these studies came out and supposedly said not do. How do you get better at anything without repetition?

I kept running into students having extra curricular activities like martial arts, dance, Pewe football and basketball which would cause them to get in late. So I started allowing them to finish homework during morning work at school. I got the best return rate when I had them to write their own word problems with answer key to exchange with a class member the following day or sending them logic problems and 5 minute math mysteries to solve.

Who gives HW any more? Most teachers in my district stopped that 15 years ago. Nobody would do it, and it would just lower grades. Kids won't do anything if it's not graded. Work in class--only hw is if they are behind.

I’m teaching summer school at a high school, and the co-principals have asked me to focus on only 2 to 3 chapters worth (what they are calling “2-3 standards” in the eight days of summer semesters. However, they are also asking me to give kids the midterm and/or final at the end of each period, which covers 4-5 chapters each semester. My question is this: “Is it legal by California Ed code for the administration to ask me to teach less than each entire semester, yet test each whole semester?”

Thoughts on Engage NY/Eureka math...

What’s your opinion on math homework? I teach 4th grade and have always given it but I’d like to see what others do and weigh out if it’s really worth it. If I give it, I feel like I should spend class time going over it but on the other hand I stress myself out trying to keep the absent work organized and those that don’t even do the work.

I finally was able to convince my principal that we need a consistent math intervention at the MS level (grades 5-8). (Right now, we are just "doing our own thing," which isn't helping students progress much.) Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be beneficial to have some sort of progress monitoring tool as part of the program, if possible. Our classes run roughly 55 minutes (which is too long for an intervention, in my humble opinion).

Thanks for any advice.

My district has finally gone 1-to-1. Is there a good app or website that I could use to have students submit answers anonymously while going over problems in class? I did this last week using Kahoot to go over a state testing review packet. It was great because I could see how many got the right answer and move on if no one missed the question. However, I would like to do it without having to create something in advance. I hope this doesn't sound confusing.
