[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know. I have one of those kids, it’s better now in middle school but still school is boring for him. I tried a lottery school for him in elementary, with project based approach and a strong peer group. He made more friends but didn’t really start liking school much more. I am trying to teach him that nothing in life is perfect. He has to make the best of what he has. Honestly it’s more fun than my school was back in the day in a different country, and I still liked it and he doesn’t. I don’t know what the answer is. I know that most teachers are overwhelmed and unfortunately not very smart so they just teach according to instructions and guidelines. It’s always great to meet an exception though. Also I noticed that school is less boring for kids who aren’t super smart but aren’t super dumb either. For more “sophisticated” kids all this really basic stuff is boring. It gets more challenging in middle school but often stays boring. [/quote]
