This is my fear. My first grader is supposedly doing higher level math work but I'm not sure how much the teacher is actually teaching him or helping him (or whether he is even doing it at all since nothing is coming home).
I told the teacher that I am buying DS a workbook and will assign him homework pages at home and help him with concepts he doesn't understand. This is the only way he's going to get direct instruction for more than 2 minutes a day, I think. She said she can help him with the work at school in the workbook she's giving him, but I just don't see how much time she would actually have to spend on it.
