I wish I had a magic wand that I could swing around and say NO MORE HOMEOWRK!!! What a fight last night to get Dalton to finish up an Art Project. He is usually pretty good about power point presentations, but for some reason, this project really had him stumped. Maybe it had to do with the fact it was on Joan Miro, a spanish surrealist.
WHO????
Yeah, my thoughts too!! Once we got digging into some research, we did find his work kind of interesting, but please? What grade 7 boy would find a dead artist from the 1920s and 30s interesting???!
At least it is done. Since we have come home, it has been a real struggle for Dalton to get any homework done. He is just plain exhausted. We have managed to get some tutoring time in a couple of days a week, but homework is the furthest thing from his mind. He still falls asleep a couple of evenings, but then again, so do I!
Might be time to shake things up a bit on here. With summer vacation coming, I want to start offering some challenges for card making and scrapbooking. Stay tuned!!
