Were you a pleasure to have in class who could get much higher grades with a little effort, who often failed to turn in assignments but did excellent work on the ones you did, who was excited about school but needed to work on paying closer attention, or are you neurotypical?
Yes, these are all direct quotes from my elementary school report cards.
Pro-tip for teachers: if your student is insisting that they DID the assignment, they just didn't TURN IN the assignment they are probably not lying, they just have ADHD.
The worst was band. Band is a class where mostly what you do is sit and wait while your senses are being assaulted by 70 noisemaking adolescents and you're holding a toy full of different shaped buttons, but if you don't pay close attention you'll screw up in really obvious ways.
I got a D in band in 6th grade.
