The problem has resurfaced.
LA teacher has approached me again yesterday and said that she is talking to Principal re: my DD and her skip to 6th grade now, mid year.
She says DD does not belong with 5th graders, she is fully immersed in 6th grade class and is actually annoyed at having to do some projects with her 5th grade classmates.
And there are field trips. 6th graders are taking a full day LA field trip this week, and my daughter is not going since she is "technically" a 5th grader. Same goes for essay assignments on the computer. DD has tough time accessing hers at home since she is registered as a 5th grader and her assignments are in 6th grade "slots".
So back to emotional roller coaster again.
While clearly she is not in the same "ball park" as her older brother, her class is at a very, very low level and I think this is part of the reason she "looks like a genius" compared to them.
DD wants to skip, badly. I am beginning to think it might be actually a good think for her to do (if you remember, I was pretty much against it).I am beginning to understan what Dottie, I think , said. That it might be a good self esteem booster for DD, who is constantly overshadowed by Ghost.
She is very mature emotionally and socially, looks though like a feather.
Wil keep you updated.
