Making the Grade

Hello! I just wanted to write for a minute before I go to bed. We started Tanner with a tutor a couple of weeks ago. It is with a first grade teacher. We got him a tutor because 2nd grade has just been a real big adjustment for him. He has had some difficulty on tests. He seems to be doing better, but still brings home an occasional F. For 5 week grades he had all A's and B's. Next week is report cards and I am almost scared to see it. I track it online and when I looked yesterday he was borderline to a D in one area and borderline to a C in another. I know that I shouldn't but I sometimes feel like a failure to him. We butt heads so much with homework that it ends up being a nightmare for both of us most of the time. Anyways....I will keep everyone updated on the situation.

You do the best you can. That's all you can do. Have David give it a try on nights that you butt heads!
