As a middle school teacher I can tell which parents correct their children's homework when they can get 100% on homework but classwork they don't understand.

I would say help if your child has a question but don't give her the answer. Rephrase the question or tell her how to look up the answer. That will be more helpful to her in the long run.

The hardest part as a teacher in the beginning of the year is to get those sixth grade students to think for themselves. They want to ask if every little part is right instead of working through the problem themselves.

Their brains are starting to use that critical thinking side, but they still want the work to be easy. Good luck!!
