Thank you for the kind words. And I agree with you about learning all those words. I really think it's excessive and unrealistic. Part of me wants to tell him that he doesn't need to worry so much about them because we won't be at this school forever, but I don't want him to feel he can slack off whenever he doesn't agree with something.
We'll see what the principal and teacher say tomorrow.
