[quote=Anonymous]"Bored" can mean all kinds of things to an early elementary school-aged child. It could mean he is uncomfortable with the social situation and routine (being in a new place with new kids), not trusting or connecting with the teacher (lack of security), not getting enough outside or free play time, not interested in working (Legos are more fun than phonics), that the teacher is too rigid (insists all the kids proceed at the same pace and ignoring their individual differences, which can be major at this age range), or that the teacher really is not challenging him at his level.
