[quote=Anonymous]3rd grade is when education goes from learn to read to read to learn. I would go with the evaluation from the great post at 21:05. I would get support from asdec.org, there are specially trained tutors who can help. Self esteem is the most important thing because it can tank at an alarming rate. Don't take away sports because it combats self esteem issues/depression. Take away TV, electronics, Chipotle (that is my new one)... if he is not TRYING. Don't punish him if he is trying but his output don't equal his input. It is very emotional to see a child struggle in school but schools are pretty good about these things now, not perfect, getting better. There is no perfect situation but you can ease the struggle with support.[/quote]
