Seems like if we "assigned" our children 3 x 20 that some of the parents might actually see it gets done. They don't have to worry about not doing it "right" and they can, with minimal effort, feel like they did something to really help their child. In my experience, nearly all parents want their child to be helped. It's muddy from there about what they are willing to do, but if they feel capable to supervise 3 x 20, that would be an hour a week freed up in school for children to read, write, learn. Has anyone tried that?
