[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 532567, member: 1722"] So she lost it tonight about schoolwork. She has three essays and two projects due over the next week and half or so. She finished one last night (about her favorite part of elementary school). She just found out about another in which she has to give an enthusiastic description of what they do in orchestra, this is due Friday. There's also one due soon from D.A.R.E. She has one page to due for a science "scrapbook" and must finish her project on a family member that immigrated to the US. She was so stressed that I actually sat down with her and helped her to start to write the essay by telling her I would type. I gave her a few suggestions on how to start it and, thankfully, it's done. I told her we could finish the science and social studies projects over the weekend. And we'll deal with the D.A.R.E. essay after that. There was something nice about the immigration project. Duckie's teacher told the students that they could choose a family member or create a character that immigrated here. I'm sure that this was for the benefit of any adoptees in the class. There is one boy in the class that was adopted from the Ukraine, so he is doing his report on himself. :) [/QUOTE]
