In the Kindergarten thread I just posted about how my DS isn't being moved to 1st grade because of an extreme lack of focus. I have no ideas on what we can do as parents to help them with this. I suspect some (or a lot) of it is boredom. And DS always tells me how long and boring school is. And he doesn't know why he does the things that he does.

Does the teacher have any ideas that will help? I'm with you in that giving him only extra work won't help at all.
