http://community.greatschools.net/q-and-a/305642/My-daughter-does-great-work-at-home-so-why-is-she-failing-2-classes I consider my 8 yr old daughter to be very bright. She is fluent in two languages, helps her 6 yr old brother with his homework every night, and can breeze through a 5th grade level book in two days. Yet her teacher insists she is not trying her best in class. What is going on here? How can I help my daughter? GreatSchools en-us drjohnson It might be that your daughter is bored pout of her gourd.
