My ds really hates doing his homework. He has just started Yr 3 and I think he is struggling to take everything in. He has a homework book which he brought home for the first tiime last night, but he hadnt written anything in it, I find out from other Mums what he has to do but I cant rely on that forever. I have phoned the school today so I can reiterate that he needs reminding and a bit of help during this first month to get him in the swing of things. His teachher last year was brilliant and he finished the year on 2b/c in everything except writing at which he is very poor. Im very worried he will slip back during this year. His reading has already nosedived for some reason. He cant seem to remember where he is in a sentence and often missing a word and reads the same sentence twice. They are getting homework every night, last night it was maths and there were 37 questions....he didnt bring it home, but I was told about it. Seem rather a lot to me, my friends ds took over an hour to do it, I will struggle to keep my ds focused for anything like this. Does anyone else experience this with their child and should I just be more relaxed about thinngs and not worry about him keeping up.
