I teach 2nd grade and since I have a difficult child and have dealt with homework battles I do my homework differently.  I send all homework for the week home on Fridays.  This gives the kids the weekend and it is not due until the next Thurs.  I do not give that much homework but it is for the parents to see what type of things we are doing in class and it should always be something they have been working on and not new material.  Ask your teacher if she can send his home the week before it is due and give him a week to do it. She should know a week in advance what she is planning for homework.  This way you can catch him when he feels like it.  Also, I feel if he is in the spectrum then put the no homework  in the IEP.  If I did not sit with mine each night doing homework it would not get done.  I told you I teach but I also do things the easy way.  Since they would not put the no homework in my difficult child's IEP when he was younger I did the work and he copied it.  Homework was not helping him so why not.
