Paper Trail...

Preface: Caleb’s third grade teacher sends out homework packets each Friday and expects them to be completed and returned by the following Thursday. While completing his weekly packet, Caleb made the following comments:

Caleb: “Mommy I don’t think teachers should give out this much homework”.

Me: (Puzzled by this statement as Caleb is generally very good about completing his homework and rarely complains) I then asked the following question: “Why is that? Do you think it’s too demanding?”

Caleb: “No but I think the planet could save a lot of trees if teachers didn’t send home so many papers”.
