as far as I know he is a good student. no problems . he did get in a fight once.  He is testing at reading 5.8 math 7.4 .  But this year will tell it.

I don't know what those numbers mean.

sorry, those are grade level . he just started 5th grade and they tested him friday.

The only time I get peace is when he's practicing his magic skills or is doing something mechanical.

Make him run! Or sit ups, jumping jacks, pushups! There was a study in a grade school which focused on students running laps instead of in-house suspension (ie sitting outside the classroom). Drastically cut the number of suspensions, behavior improved, grades improved, and some of the ADHD kids really had significant improvements in their condition (less medication needed).

OK. So he's starting the year ahead of the rest. That's great!!!! Mine starts 7th this year. Last year was not a good year for him.

During football season he is much more well behaved. But I didn't sign up the boys this year.

Oh my harsh. You aren't taking up the thread.I hope your chickens are okay. I'm sure cb would have said something if they weren't. We got rain today. Nothing hard just sprinkling. I wanted a storm.

Is your boy ADHD ? I will tell you something that helped Robert a ton ! I held an iep meeting and requested a special sponge for him from PT. It rocks. literally. And they can keep moving it helps them concentrate. I also allowed pop to drink for breakfast. also helped. caffeine works in reverse for add.

I medicated for a min. School was pushing. He started having heart palpitations. I told school if he wants to run and they want to teach then run with him. I looked into monasori (badly spelled) school for him because that is how they teach. Hands on. I couldnt get him in.
