[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 645225, member: 3419"] So, we had difficult child sit at the kitchen table last night and work on his history notebook for over an hour. He finished several pps. Problem is--get this--he didn't write down WHICH pages were supposed to be done. So he just randomly wrote in pages.:wornout::huh::halfdead: I mean, couldn't he at least remember if the teacher was talking about George Washington or the Industrial Revolution? He said he texted a friend, who used her cell phone to photograph the board. He was waiting and waiting for her response (lame excuse). I asked him why he didn't photograph the board. "Because then the teacher will take my phone away." (Deep breath.) "So why didn't you take written notes?" "I don't know." He skipped a huge paragraph on one page because he didn't have his book on the Progressive Era. I typed in "Industrial Revolution led to the Progressive Era" on my laptop and handed it to him. No more excuses. And I *think* he took his medications in front of me at the table, although I didn't actually check his lap ... He's got a test today in that class so I hope it brings up his grade. At least he'll remember part of the work he did last night. by the way, I think that part of H's allure is her exoticism, part is her willingness to break the rules (her fave hobby), and part is the fact that she has a car. :( [/QUOTE]
