[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When the kids comment the work is easy or boring, ask them to prove it by giving you excellent grades. Easy =/ bad grade.

Gifted or not, they need to have good work ethics.[/quote]

You think children are small adults, right?[/quote]

No. I do think that kids in school need to complete their work and do what their Teachers ask them to do. And I expect them to do it without eye rolls.

I remind my son that the Teacher is asking him to show his work to make sure that he understands the concept that they are learning. Just writing down the answer and skipping the show your work part doesn't show the Teacher that you understand the concept.

Once DS shows his Teacher he understands the concept and can get the correct answer his Teacher allows them to move onto the next segment. In LA, he has a host of options he can choose to do when he completed his work properly. So he finishes and then he chooses something off that list to do. Any work that comes home incomplete is completed at home and returned to school.
