[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Help your child figure out a system to stay organized and on top of assignments. Have them go to their weekly teachers hours the minute anything gets fuzzy. Schedule a parent hours mtg early on with the teacher in any class your child is struggling with. The kids work hard but also have fun. Art and music work will all be completed in class. English and math will likely require the most effort. Best of luck for a great year. -parent of 6th and 9th grade Basis students[/quote] Thank you from another 5th grade parent. I was commenting to DH this morning that this 5th grade is no joke for both our 5th grade dd and myself. We're coming from a school where there was very little emphasis on home work and it did not count towards the grades. Now, home work is serious business. She has a positive report so far though it's still the first week so we'll see how that goes. Any more tips/suggestions particularly with respect to late bird and extracurricular activities?[/quote] We have never used late bird. My kids have like the extra curriculars they have tried but we limited them to just one at a time until they got the swing of homework, commuting, the longer school day. [/quote]
