Do you experience homework stress? Maybe with giving? grading? helping your own kids? Today I might ruffle some feathers with my opinion about homework, but I hope you stick with me because... 
Today we'll chat about: 

  • why we give homework 
  • why students don't do homework 
  • what might happen if we just stop giving homework this year. 

It's okay if we disagree, I would love to brainstorm ways we can reduce homework stress & make math more equitable. If you're up to chat send me at DM on IG @HelloMonaMath
