im in 6th grade i get 10 page essays. also we have homework for every class i have. so if your bad in 1 subject in 5th grade, it wont effect that much since it doesnt come up every day
6th grade its big cause if you get bad grades you get switched to bad classes, you fail 6th grade and you get mabe 2 things of homework every subject. you have 4 classes each day.
i take: L.A ( Honors ) Math ( Standard Plus ) Social Studies and Science ( Honors ) also Spanish and P.E
