[QUOTE="SRL, post: 125805, member: 701"] I'll let the experts help you with the services--it can be tough to get them in place for ADHD. I was shocked when language arts homework started coming home in kindergarten, especially since my boys were reading at a 2nd and 5th grade level respectively when they started school. They could have easily have finished it during the school day. I started figuring the homework was doled out to all kids equally whether they needed it or not and that for the most part it was really the PARENT'S work. It took me more time and effort to get them to get it out, convince them to do it, and get it packed back up than it took them to perform the task. At our school homework assigned in K-3 is extra work. In grades 4-5 it's what's left that they didn't finish and that's when the homework time really picked up. Try homework at way different times--I used to slide it over with a pencil the last few minutes of supper. The past few years difficult child has been doing it in the morning--he's just too shot after a day at school to do it. [/QUOTE]
