No Homework? Oh, really?
I have to share this story with you all cause it's that funny:One of the parents at my center was concerned because he noticed his son wasn't receiving homework sheets to complete as often as he did at the beginning of the school year. The parent contacted the teacher who informed him that the director of the center told the teachers not to give out ditto sheet homework assignments due to the amount of paper teachers use when xeroxing. The parent, in turn, called the director, and I don't know how that conversation went. Next thing you know, the parent pulls up to the school with $500 worth of xerox paper he bought from Staples like "Here, problem solved...make sure my son gets homework tonight." I mean there were BOXES of xerox paper...I was CRACKING up...
See, the reason he was so into his child getting homework is because he noticed that the child's mother actually sits with the child and takes time out to help him complete it. When he doesn't have homework, that doesn't happen, so not only was he concerned about his child's education, but he was also concerned about his son's bonding time with his mother.
That was just so funny when it happened...man, be careful what you tell people cause you never know what they will do...
