Wouldn't it be nice if you and your classroom students needed homework less and less until you did not need it at all? This workshop will explore the necessity for daily homework assignments and strategies that can be offered in the classroom to minimize that need. By being more efficient and effective, you can lessen reliance on homework — maybe completely. This is not a homework-bashing workshop. It is a practical one with strategies that can be used in your classroom immediately, including brain-friendly activities, creative approaches to assignments, student-centered practices and more.
