A2: HW was a source of anxiety and an opportunity to hone my procrastination skills. #d100chat #hackinghomework

We now know better than to say: We just learned this difficult concept today, now go home and practice alone. Bad example of HW. #D100chat

A2 I was a procrastinator (and still am). Many late nights at the kitchen table for little Leah Walsh... I always completed HW. #d100chat

When my own kids get stupid HW, I bite my tongue & make up reasons why my kids should do it. Inside, I'm reciting this prayer: #d100chat

Ugh, agree, no reading logs! I didn't love reading until I was older-- but reading logs didn't help motivate me either! #d100chat

A2 I almost learned nothing from my homework. But I did LOVE to read. Just not logs, not even then #d100chat

Agree! Nobody likes boring work-- worksheets or "digital worksheets"! Even if it's not on paper, it can still be boring! #d100chat
