[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also worry about my DC who has been bored for so long. He hasn't had to work hard for at least 2 years. Glad to hear others have the same concerns - sounds like all kids will be in the same boat.[/quote] That was the biggest adjustment for my DS last year...he could do all the work, but he wasn't used to such high expectations and amounts of homework. Remember that the HGCs know that it'a an adjustment for all the students, and they've defined the first 9 wks. as an adjustment period. (it was extremely hard, though, when my DS had to stay inside in Sept. + October when all of his friends were playing outside, friends from his former school would come by and want to play, he'd have to decline because of homework - but as I mentioned in an earlier post, once they learn to manage their time and assignments, they adjust and homework generally doesn't take as long as it does the first couple weeks or months.)[/quote]
