DS is in Year 5. They're doing Victorians. For his half term homework he has chosen two subjects, factories and Queen Victoria. All very well, except teacher has decreed that they can't just hand in something written with pictures. It has to be different. Wtaf?! What is DS meant to do? Build a scale model of a Victorian factory from toothpicks? Mould a bust of Queen Vic from cookie dough? He is only interested in football and gaming, but does well in maths and literacy at school. What do they want from him??? DP and I have zero creative skills but we're going to have to think of - and make - something with him which none of us will enjoy as we'll be crap at it. I just want to tell teach to shove it but suspect that won't do DS any favours.... Help!
It has to be handed in next Friday so there won't be time to wait until after half term to talk to his teacher, we are going to have to get started in the hols. When I'm mostly working. Argh.
