[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 387318"] Kiddo got her report card this week, she was disappointed, I was not surprised. Things she could learn by rote, like reading and math, she excelled in. Reading comprehension, on the other hand, she scored low in, which I spoke to the teacher about at the beginning of the year. I expected this, had noticed it at home. She and I are reading "Raptor Red" together (because she loves dinosaurs, so this is her first grown-up novel), and we went through a paragraph that describes a thunderstorm but doesn't say what it is. She didn't get it, her guesses as to what he was talking about were all across the map. But taking it slower the second time, letting her process it one sentence at a time, she got it. Dinosaur species names she can spit out as easily as any other words, but processing is something else. She's also having trouble with "taking personal responsibility" which no matter how much we discuss I can't entirely get her to latch on to. Or the reverse - everything wrong with the universe is her fault. No middle ground. [/QUOTE]
