I have heard a lot about this and am so thankful our school district is not like that. In kindergarten, he had none. Now in first grade, we do 1 worksheet most nights that is supposed to take no longer than 15 minutes (he does it faster) and read for 5 hours a month. Honestly, if we were assigned 2 hours a night, I would be flipping out. I get off work earlier than the normal person, but then we need time to cook and eat supper, go to the gym or sports and get to bed at a decent time. It normally leaves about 30 minutes of downtime as it is.
