I have been thinking off and on about this, even though my child is only in elementary school. How are grades decided ? Is in-class work graded at high school ? Or, does only doing the homework count ?
What about middle school ? And elementary school ?
One of the challenges I am having is that my child will not complete the work in class completely. I have asked him many times -- he says that the work is very boring. Occasionally, I think the way school is, is in direct conflict with the way he learns. He does not act out; he simply continues to work on whatever is fascinating to him at the moment (even if it does mean that work is not completed at school). I am really concerned that he will under-perform, and not care about school when he is older.
Any advice or suggestions ?
You need to ask parents who have children in the middle school/high school where you are for those sub-questions.
