Once a few weeks into the year when she was all worried about his readiness for Grade 4 and almost wanted him back in Grade 3, and then at the end of term 1 when she agreed that he was doing ok, and she seemed to have relaxed a bit.<br><br>I communicate with her via email and she never says anything encouraging or positive, and I don't think she is very nice to him either. The report comments are not very positive mentioning him being 'too talkative' and how she is 'worried about his ability to cope in Grade 5' etc.<br><br>Look he is not the easiest child. he is very bright, but enquiring, distractable and playful... but he loves school and is not a delinquent, but I imagine he doesn't fit the regular mould. But this is the first teacher we have really clashed with the others have been prepared to work WITH him rather than against him. I am finding myself being negative about her now... :(JaneFhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01327326438149488642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4546660525329091713.post-37538473068778199352009-07-01T05:26:29.710+02:002009-07-01T05:26:29.710+02:00GO QUINN!!!ARGH sorry about that teacher!!!
