Apples of my eye



"Ah, the sweet smell of apple, I haven't tasted you in so long." - Chase Staggs (2/6/09)




Updates:


I've met with Micah's teacher and the gifted coordinator about Micah's responsibility issues. We have new tools in place: a checklist next to the door and a goal of one week of turning everything in. We'll see how next week goes (cross your fingers). He's excited about it. We've turned it into a science experiment, per the advice of his GC. We are monitoring how it goes a week at a time and if it doesn't, then we try something new. We will compare notes to decide which methods work best. Micah is the ultimate decision maker. Reaching goals = prize of Micah's choosing (within reason).




Chase was the author of "The New Bully in Town." Starbucks gift cards coming soon.
