" You think your 10-year-old son&amp;#039;s teacher is giving him too much homework. What do you do? Voice your concern at the next parent-teacher conference. Call the principal and ask her to weigh in on how much homework is appropriate for your son&amp;#039;s grade level. Say nothing. The teacher knows how much work is appropriate. Correct answer: (1) Teachers want to know when students are having trouble; your child&amp;#039;s instructor will surely work with you to find solutions. Before the meeting, observe your son&amp;#039;s habits for a few days. Does he study with the TV on or a younger sibling playing video games nearby? If so, find him a quieter place and see if that cuts down on how long he needs to spend on his assignments. After your conference, if you still think he&amp;#039;s overloaded, follow up with the teacher. Choose to speak with the principal only as a last resort. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
