x 3 That is exactly what I do. give him real world farm problems to see how it relates to his school work. We also do not hesitate to e-mail teachers when there are questions. As mentioned above.....if the teacher's do not realize their lesson plan is not being understood, we have had many instances where they will adjust the plan, or go over certain subjects again. I have a couple just like this....why study, I want to farm.....too. But I tell them it is their "JOB" to study now to prepare for life after. With that said, I will agree that there are some kids out there who are square pegs that will never "fit" into a round hole. |
