[QUOTE="kim75062, post: 704484, member: 20727"] I'm sure its the negative association with the school work now from his bad experiences in the school. I have seen none of the other behavior problem like the school was dealing with at all. I did home school him the last 4 months of last year because of the running away from school problem and that never carried over to home either. As far as paper and pencil work goes, he only has maybe 30-45 mins worth of it a day. I think that quality over quantity is way more important. We do a subject a day, and a theme for each week. This weeks theme is Christmas (last week was to). Today was math day, we did a few money counting work sheets, counted up his piggy bank and he went shopping with his money. We are also working on measurements so after dinner was Christmas cookie making time where all those ingredients need measured. Tomorrow is social studies day and we will be learning about the history of Hanukkah through a book and cartoon video I have (he already knows Christmas). Then I will teach him how to play spin the dreidel (and he will probably win all of my money because hes great with tops). We do A LOT of hands on activities and no electronics before lunch time (educational or not). And he needs the hands on stuff to help with his poor muscle tone in his little fingers. If anyone else has any suggestions that would be great! I really have no idea what I'm doing more then a week at time. I did find the TEA list of what is needed to be learned for 1st graders here and theres NO way that the public school is any where close on that list. Luckily he knows most of it and has mastered some of it already. [/QUOTE]
