Your student can expect no more than 40 minutes of homework per evening. Your student should be working on meeting self selected goals, reading, and some math each night.

Reading each night has been shown to be beneficial to growth and development. A suggested reading time of 20-30 minutes per evening is recommended by Ms. Zangger. Additionally, reading is most effective when students can discuss what they have read with someone else. If you are able to, read with your student or ask them about their reading.
