Mrs. Donna explained in dept how impotant it is to not hold your child back. Instead she wants you to let them excel and think about what crucial stage your child's brain is in. Many people think they have their own children figured out and end up confused. Each child is unique in their own way and has certain learning capabilities that need to be used in a classroom so why hold the back??? If the kid has the smarts don't hesitate to let them excel to higher levels.
I can relate to mrs. Donna because I have a brother who is very intelligent and his mother doesn't want to put him in head start yet along school... I have a problem with that. His learning capabilities are out of this world and he needs to be in a classroom so he can get the correct education for his learning abilities. I just feel like a child shouldn't be held back if he or she is smart enough to keep up with those around them all because of the parent.

I think that holding people back is wrong, and a bad idea. I also think that there should be more awareness of the fact that we all learn the best in different ways.
ReplyDeletei believe that parents often times think they know whats best for their child. even if their child IS just a child, they still know themselves better than anyone else and they should have the biggest say in what their education consists of.
ReplyDeleteSome parents feel as though their child is not mature enough for the next grade, based on what they see, but I believe in testing children to be aware of their capabilities. Sometimes mother doesn't always know best!
