Depending on age or social appropriateness, write it on the homework. So keep the data in your notebook at home and let the teacher know. If you helped your child significantly and it took 90 minutes to do one worksheet, they need to know that! All they see is the completed worksheet. Your child’s teacher sees the assignment that was handed in. Your teacher only sees the homework in front of them. It’s just a different way of doing the homework, the idea is not to give moms and dads more work to do, but you do need the data to get your child supports and services….so monitor the data and keep it. Write down the date and what homework you worked on, for how long and how much assistance it took. Just a notebook in the area where you do the homework. For some kids, they have to be direct taught everything and this is not realistic for them.If the homework is to teach or learn something there isn’t time for in a school, you may need specific accommodations for that.If the homework is to test knowledge and your child has strategies for test-taking, the same strategies should apply to homework.This, of course, could backfire by putting added weight on test scores and grades which may not be great either.Perhaps if they do it more for practice and less for testing, it will take some of the pressure off. Ask if your child must be graded on every assignment that their peers are graded on.Your child may need modified content if they simply cannot master the same amount of content in the same amount of time as their non-disabled peers. Set reasonable time limits and go from there. Especially if that amount of time doesn’t even result in correct, completed assignments. In my mind, no child should have to spend 5-6 hours a night on homework. You have to establish baselines to see how much your child can complete in one hour. If you know that EF issues are a struggle for your child, ask for EF goals and strategies. Perhaps this assignment or project is not to test their knowledge of the content, but to see how well they manage materials or a project. The first one: executive functioning skills. Is it to test learning of a concept that day or week?.Will this homework be graded? What is the weight? How much value does it have toward the child’s grade?.Will it reinforce learning that took place that day or week?.Is the child is expected to learn these concepts on their own?.

Are there are enough hours in the school day/year to accomplish this?.Is it to test the child’s Executive Functioning skills, and not really the content?.But what is the function of this teacher/subject’s homework? Homework is something we just accept so passively. Can you get homework accommodations on an IEP?.
