[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She's the type of kid who has an A+ average but still does the extra credit "just in case." DH and I don't put the pressure on her (I swear!), she puts it on herself. On the one hand, it's nice that she's motivated. On the other hand, the motivation really only extends to the grade. She's not really interested in/engaged with the material besides the gradebook. Any suggestions for how to shift the focus a little? (FWIW, we're in MD, but not Montgomery County.) [/quote] Good. Lots of kids like this in the dmv area and elsewhere in America and the world. Keep it healthy and keep the high standards. [/quote]
