[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She needs a tutor. She is behind in both academic core subjects. She does not need to play games to learn. She needs to learn. She needs direct instruction to work with her in her areas of weakness. If games worked, she wouldn’t be behind…[/quote] Agree that she needs a tutor. It took a year of weekly tutoring to get my then 3rd grader up to speed in reading/writing after she learned nothing in the virtual year. She's now working with a math tutor weekly, and that will continue through the summer so that she is prepared for 6th grade, which I've heard is kind of the transition point for math (meaning it gets harder and harder to catch up after 6th). Games are great for maintenance, but to actually learn, she needs a tutor.[/quote]
