It those situations she can always find a word for each letter. Choose a theme! Animal names? Count by 2s! Make a song out of it.

I'm not being contrary, PP. And, I'm not the PP above. Just sharing some of the tactics I've used to get through homework assignments. I was G&T tracked at a young age and learned to create fun for myself. I'd list a whole bunch of three digit numbers and add them up, while the other kids finished an assignment that I'd already completed. In high school, I remember using the end pages of the blue book to write out sonnets I'd memorized because we all had to stay in the testing room until time was up. You find a way, PP. I was taught that it was impolite to complain and unfair to those who needed that exercise or time, so I had to get creative.

Were you not bored while you were adding three-digit numbers and writing down sonnets you'd memorized? Or were you merely less bored than you would otherwise have been? [/quote]
