Grinity Member Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 7,207 Connecticut	Originally Posted by Breakaway4 Does anyone have any issues with the motivation/attitude towards learning sections? I would think that one of the reasons for acceleration is that the current level of academics is not challenging enough to promote motivation etc. yet this will dramatically reduce the points allotted. Just a thought... It seems to me that a kid could lose 7 points in the motivation section. If the child has a very high IQ, then they could afford to lose those points easily. If the child is more optimally gifted (WAS moderately gifted) and they might really need those 7 points, then they have less of an excuse for having such a very bad attitude. (That's why we're calling it optimally gifted, yes?) Does this seem reasonable? Grinity Coaching available, at SchoolSuccessSolutions.com
