[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3rd grader is totally capable of being alone for 15 minutes and totally capable of walking that distance to school. The part that I'm not she'd be able to do is keep track of the time so that shoes are on and she leaves the house on time, remembering her backpack. How are your children with time management?[/quote] +1 In the morning, no way my 3rd grader could handle it. But in 2nd grade, I did leave him alone in the house for 15-20 minutes one afternoon per week, with a timer set to get shoes on and leave, and he took himself to a class about 6 blocks away. Maybe we should try the timer thing for the mornings...[/quote]
