A1: Students really enjoyed choice menus. Board of scaffolded activites/assignments, each worth different point totals. #bookcamppd

A2: Students have more responsibilities and the expectations are different now. too much going on all over. Over committed #bookcamppd

A2: they need to see meaning in it, the word homework has a negative vibe to it #bookcamppd

A2 One reason in access to resources to complete AND the amount of other things students are doing after school. #bookcampPD

In reply to @mjjohnson1216

conniehamilton Aug 5 @ 9:18 AM EDT

One reason HW is so difficult for Ss is because it's assigned too early in the learning progression. They don't know how yet. #BookCampPD

mrchokshi Aug 5 @ 9:19 AM EDT

Very true! So, if the HW is sufficiently accessible & challenging (w/in Ss zone of proximal development), then it's okay, right? #bookcamppd

Question 2 - Why has homework become a greater challenge for students to complete when extending their learning? #BookCampPD

Hahne_Elyse Aug 5 @ 9:19 AM EDT

A2 The meaning is skewed now. Ss have more responsibilities & they don't always have the support at home. #bookcamppd

cooper1503 Aug 5 @ 9:19 AM EDT

Big wheels, legos, long hikes, super hero adventures are all valuable homework! #bookcampPD

Many have mentioned Hack #8 - team up with families. Great language activities can take place during those. #BookCampPD

cooper1503 Aug 5 @ 9:24 AM EDT

A3 Number 5! Play is one of the best forms of learning! When Pixar starts a new movie they send their animators to the Zoo! #bookcampPD

A1 My younger Ss had the task of choosing to read ingredients/look at & read in a different voice. It was something they enjoyed #bookcamppd

mssackstein Aug 5 @ 9:25 AM EDT

Agreed... #bookcamppd

I'm most passionate about Hack 2. We have to stop thinking HW teaches responsibility. #BookCampPD

ElemCoach Aug 5 @ 9:25 AM EDT

A2 teachers can meet 21st century skill development by using book studies & using PBLs for Ss to demo what they learn #BookCampPD

mjjohnson1216 - Moderator Apr 30 @ 8:45 AM EDT

Q2: How can educators be held accountable to connect book studies to what students really need? #BookCampPD #HackLearning

PMcPeake1 Aug 5 @ 9:25 AM EDT

A2 one parent wrote across her child's 1st assignment, We Don't Do HW in big red laters. Parents are taking control of red pen. #bookcamppd

My kids & kids I work with at school they dont like homework & they rather do family things & play with friends one thing I hear a lot.

We can always start small and think of ways to break up with daily HW. It's not a necessity. #BookCampPD

I almost feel like it does the exact opposite, we are setting them up to not be responsible. #bookcamppd

If we can support Ss in learning instead of punishing them when they don't, we will also build better relationships. #BookCampPD

Think about how much value family time and extra curriculars have on developing students. How might HW infringe on these? #BookCampPD
