[quote=Anonymous][quote]Boys in both groups (yes, they seem always to be boys) end up taking way more than their proportional share of the teachers' time, dominating conversations, and generally disrupting what would otherwise be a perfectly pleasant school experience.[/quote] Interestingly, in my children's classes, it was typically the kids who were on the younger end of the age range who tended to be disruptive and needed more time and attention from the teachers. There were a few that I sometimes worked with as a volunteer with an outside of school program and I could see that they were very immature for their age and being the youngest in the class exacerbated the problem. Allowing these kids to go to school a year later would have been appropriate and would have allowed these kids to have a better, more successful school experience. [/quote]
