OMG.
I don't know what else to say. I just spent 4 hours doing math homework with my 11 year old for about the 20th night in a row. I am going out of my mind.
She's only in 5th grade and I can't grasp this math. It's not even so much that I don't grasp it, what I do grasp, I can't teach.
What's a mom supposed to do? I hired a tutor who comes weekly. I send her teacher notes saying she's not getting it.
I don't know what else to do!
I am completely fed up with LAUSD! Are there so many kids in the class that they can't help the kids who need it? HELP! What are other mothers doing out there to deal with getting their kids through homework?
