I cannot endure the cracks any longer, and will begin homeschooling fuzzy and buzzy on Monday. I nervous and excited at the same time. Nervous that I will lose perspective and not be successful. Excited because they will be getting a better education. They actually have to, as I told lue, there is not much pressure since buzzy hasn't learned anything ins the last three years. So what has he learned? Being 80%. Inclusive special Ed, over the last 7 years in 4 schools the underlying theme is: REWARDS COME WITHOUT WORK.
Not exactly a parent with high expectations for their kids vision. He would fill the pop machines at school, have treats and parties a couple days a week, and whatever else they could make fun for him. He just went to school to hang out. The funniest is they were working on a checkbook in math, but he continues to have difficulty differentiating between withdrawals and deposits. YA THINK? You wouldn't expect a third grader to balance a checkbook, but because he is almost 16 he should be? I am tired of babysitting a program I have lost faith in, and what's that saying....if you can fix a problem don't complain about it. Part 1 fixed. Being exempt from the controversial standardized testing has been no advantage to him. Then, they have the nerve to provide drivers Ed, and recommend special Ed take it to gain safety knowledge and personal growth in understanding heir limitations and abilities, making it easier to accept other transportation plans. But But guess what?
At no time in the quarter did the teacher make any correlation between her grading and passing requirements and the states, so my poor buzzy thinks he is going to get his license, when he got a d in the class and tested in the 60%s. AARRGGHHHH!!! Once again, do you people realize that someone is responsible for this person emotional well begging and it is ME! Now he has to wait to take his test though, this process led me to an error with our adoption in that the birth certificates were never flies with the state, and his original certificate cannot even be obtained by me. Messed up catch tail i get to play, because I am so bored and all.
Homeschooling will be way more fun than trying to advocate 24/7 for my kid to get s fair education. The price may be high with my nerves, but I can do all things through Christ! This is what God wants for our family right now and the natural born teacher in me is having fun with it, but we don't start til tomorrow!
Happy is doing way better in school, thanks to aderall. Both girls are doing piano lessons one, that ring brain left brain should be excellent for Happy, combined with her twice weekly speech therapy we could hope for a university education! Fuzzy And the girls are doing basketball too and I want to find something for Buzzy to do....but he is such s lazy whiner:)
33weeks preggo tomorrow, so there is my motivation to get established with a good routine! 6 weeks til baby girl comes on girls school spring break week, that we will obviously observe, then 10 weeks til summer! We can do this!!
