fidgety kids
Just had our parent teacher conference for our 6th grade son. The
story is pretty much the same as every year--bright kid but he can't sit still in class. Of course each year teachers are less tolerant of his fidgeting, twirling the eraser, pencil tapping, etc. But, like each year, the teachers seem unable to come up with any concrete strategies for dealing with the issue. The kid is bored, everyone agrees, but the level of fidgetiness seems beyond that which can be explained by boredom alone. He doesn't sit still often--he eats standing up most meals, he plays video games jumping up and down, etc. So, the question becomes what to do in school? Has anyone dealt successfully with this problem? Chris |
