My daughter's name is S, 12 yrs old and started a private school this year for her 6th grade year. She has been struggling from the beginning of the school year with all the changes that 6th grade requires. Keeping organized, staying on top of tasks and assignments, test taking, etc. Math appears to be one of her hardest subjects but I have now discovered that writing is on the top of the list. She has had several writing assignments that have been like pulling teeth to get her thoughts on paper. I am constantly hearing "I can't do it, because I don't know how" which then ends up turning into a nightmare for both of us. She has a habit of being somewhat lazy, procrastinates, forgetful, loses focus quick. Her motivation for learning is slowly dying out.
