I don't doubt that. Especially if you include assigned reading time. I have a 4th grader and they're expected to read 30 minutes a day out side of school and keep a log of that. Some teachers require them to write at least a paragraph each night explaining what they read. Add to that the normal math and/or writing worksheets and you can get to 50 minutes pretty easily.
