Of course, I am cynical and I don't expect things to change much whether I talk to the teacher or not. That's my own school experience speaking. Teachers are not concerned about a nice kid with good grades who doesn't act out in class. They just aren't. The fact that said child is bored is disappointing, of course, but when there are so many other bigger problems, that tiny one usually doesn't garner much attention. When I was in school, the standard response from the teachers was more busywork which just encouraged me to keep my mouth shut already.<br /><br />I like Starry Night Over The Rhone a lot better than Starry Night. I love the two people at the bottom. The reason Grace and I were disagreeing is because she remembers seeing the poster, but right now it is in some closet somewhere and we couldn't look at it directly.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472686909226073213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940375117370631601.post-379108667175876872015-01-22T22:14:32.077-06:002015-01-22T22:14:32.077-06:00Oh I know what you mean about challenges.

It's possible the teacher is looking for precisely that input and would love to help you to make school more of a challenge. Maybe?<br /><br /><br />Oh I love that poster. I think I like it better than Starry Night, which Anthony has a little framed poster of. Melanie Bettinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12557248434888642114noreply@blogger.com
