We have a learning log project to do every half term. DS v resistant to homework. I usually have to encourage him every step. Today he has to draw a simple object and label it.
How much help would you give? He's made a mess of drawing the object and is now labelling it using squint lines and tiny text disappearing off the end of the page.
Is it too much to ask for him to think about presentation, using straight lines, adding a heading etc? We talked about all this before he started but he's completely ignored it. I usually help quite a bit with presentation and have decided to let him do his own thing this time - but we did a practice one together and have talked about what he needs to do.
He is a bright boy but doesn't like writing. Presenting things is not his strong point. But he has to learn, doesn't he?
Arghhhh.
