[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He has too many things to carry. See above.[/quote] He really doesn't have that much and I've helped him organized per place. I keep trying to tell him to take X out, use it, and then it immediately goes back into it's place. When we transition, I tell him to put things away. So when we get home from school, I remind him to unpack his things (lunch, water bottle, papers for me to sign). [b]How much longer do I need to give this daily reminder to unpack his backpack?[/b] [/quote] Years. Reminding and prompting and systems are all good teaching tools, but kids need to be taught repeatedly over time. You have a little kid going through a lot of physical, mental, and emotional development and that development will continue for years. He's not "baked" yet and it's unrealistic to expect that every lesson sticks.[/quote]
