[quote=Anonymous]Every few months in 3rd and 4th I would notice it looked like my now 5th grade son didn’t fully rinse out hair conditioner. When that happens, I have the kid wear a swim suit in the shower and let me show them how to wash their hair. My kids swim year round, so unfortunately conditioner is necessary unless they want shorter haircuts. I think a 3rd grader should be working towards independence for things like packing and unpacking backpacks and sports gear. We use dry erase checklists for our kids to learn their various routines. We have a stack of cheap 8.5*11 flimsy dry erase boards and we write routines in “wet erase”marker so it doesn’t wipe off without water. The kids check off their items in dry erase marker so it’s easy to wipe the list and use it again the next day. [/quote]
