[quote=Anonymous]my dd, also 5th grade, same position. what has helped: role play so she has a grab bag of responses. practiuve a lot so they are 2nd nature. tell her to shrug her shoulders or just say whatever when she can't think of anything to say. remind her that these kids are feeling insecure and are immature. 5th grade will end in a few months and many of these kids will change by 6th grade (some for the better, some for the worse) sometimes joking works. when they tease her for not knowing something, she can respond "not everyone can be as smart as you" followed by a bow. my dd did this, sarcastically, and the one girl who kept bugging her stopped.
