[quote=Anonymous]Mine always pushed the wrong things. If your kids are struggling, are they flailing or learning through their struggle? Schools today demand an enormous amount of clerical competence, and it doesn't come easily to some kids. There are also more completion grades, and less timely grading of writing. These facts work against success for some kids. Time to focus hard on process and study skills. If you force accurate planners, an absence of mystery about when things are due, and plans on how to get work done and studying done, the rest will fall into place. You can't yell about outcomes unless you start teaching this stuff. [/quote]
