After 2 weeks into school, ds9 finally blew his top at home today.
He said "Now Math has become my least favourite subject in school!!!"
He is not settling well into the new school. He comes home frustrated and gets angry towards his sister (Dd12) easily.
The school is not doing anything for him right now. He is doing the online CTY course at home after school but that doesn't address his boredom in school. I think he still misses his friends in the previous school and the familiar surroundings.

There is going to be a tryout for the AMC preparation prog next week which I suggested that he shoudl go for it.Even though the teacher -in - charge told me it is meant for 6th-8th graders, she welcome him to take the test. I hope he make it as one of the top 15 scorers but the timing of this class is the same as Orchestra training, which he wants too. Another frustrating thing....

What can I make him a happier child? He used to be so cheerful everyday. frown
