12. Your second grader should have approximately 20 minutes set aside each evening for homework.
I try to stagger the homework between Language Arts and Math.
A great idea is to set aside a particular “office space” just for your child to do their homework each evening.
Every night try to have your child read and or practice math facts.
Homework is worth 1 point. If it’s late it’s worth ½ point.
