[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not pp, but with fake school last year it should have been painfully obvious how little they were doing. If they were staying in DCPS, you could probably ignore it, but if they’re were going to a high school that drew heavily from kids doing real school in 8th grade you should have seen this coming. If you can afford a big 3, you can afford a few novels or a history book. Buy them and assign a few essays [/quote] Exactly, should have seen it coming. We figured out how to download e-books from DC Public Library early in the pandemic. We found great book lists/curricular for 8th grade ELA on-line easily enough, and offered him incentives to read as many of the books as possible. We also hired a fine on-line writing tutor (in India) who ran us $25/hr. Kid liked the incentives and mostly cooperated. [/quote] What incentives did you use? [/quote]
