NBC Parent Toolkit blog published a new series today entitled “Parenting Perspectives.” Parents can write in with questions and various experts respond. For this first one, four experts including CPCK’s Jennifer Miller were asked to write about the issue of homework. A parent wrote in to ask: “What is the value of homework and in particular, what is the validity of a school’s no-homework policy?” Check out each of these four perspectives and see if it helps shed some light on an issue that has the potential to become a power struggle between parents and children but also, can provide daily connection for parents to a child’s learning. Be sure to add your comments about how homework impacts your family.
