Link doesn't seem to work.
In elementary I think the only homework should be reading, math skills that aren't mastered, and spelling that's not mastered.
Reading especially should be mandatory for a half hour per day.
Back when I was in school it was things like build a diorama or do some stupid creative way of presenting what you learned from a book. To me they were time consuming tasks that provided no learning.
In high school an hour or so of homework total per day should be reasonable. Mainly to get students used to the idea of work outside of class time that occurs in university.
