[quote=Anonymous]Structure, structure, structure. Find as consistent a time as possible to do the work. Sit with him. Break tasks down into reasonable steps (cut up worksheets or cover parts of the assignment if you have to so he doesn't get overwhelmed visually). Talk to his teacher about how he responds when given assignments in the classroom. Make sure he's had a snack. One of my kids did this, but in 3rd grade. It was frustrating but he just needed a lot of support. This last year and a half has been HARD for so many kids. Teachers are regularly stating that many of their students are behind socially and emotionally, don't have the stamina for school work that they should have, and don't have the classroom skills they should - on top of any other negative impacts from the pandemic. Hang in there. [/quote]
