However, one thing that might work is to cover his questions with little post-it notes. For each one he peels off and answers, he gets to add it to a "point" bank (with a reasonable time limit when the points expire). Looking at the entire page can easily overwhelm certain personalities. While I'm not a big advocate of catering to my kid's weakness, this seems to be more of a tactic in breaking down big tasks into individual tasks, with a reward at the end of each completed question. Might be worth a try... I'll be praying for your grand adventure. There's nothing like homeschooling to keep you on your face before the Lord!!Nancy Soderstromnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12126103.post-91758377428090570522011-07-25T09:17:40.263-05:002011-07-25T09:17:40.263-05:00I have this same problem with Deonna.

But, I let her sit until it is finished and eventually, she gets it done. It drives me crazy, though. Good luck to you. Let me know if you have any ideas. Great to know the kids are doing great!Missy and Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08054616532576871816noreply@blogger.com
