Teachers, want to take something off your plate? Put HW in the trash. Especially for elementary, let students go home, run, play, and enjoy being a child. And read a little after playing. Then they come to school recharged instead of stressed out and you will too!
@teachteKBeck@alicekeeler I use "Choice Eliminator Lite". Just have a question that includes choices of "Spot 1", Spot 2", ... "Spot 40" or the like and require the question.
Every superintendent and school board member should read this article. A decade of toughening teacher evaluations and tying it to standardized tests have shown no positive impact on student learning. It has only decreased morale. Stop the madness.

LED constellation circuit project with grade 6! We used LEDs, copper tape, and pill batteries. The students worked hard and it paid off!
