DSCF5163I am nine and a half years old. I am also in 4th grade. I used to like school when I started. Kindergarten was great! We had parties and did art. But then in 2nd grade our family moved to a new state. It was really hard and I missed my old school and friends. I didn’t really like my teacher either. She would get mad at me for doing things. Sometimes I didn’t even know why she was mad at me. But every day I was getting my clip moved to yellow. Sometimes I didn’t know what I was supposed to do for homework or classwork.  I did not like school anymore. Then I went to third grade and it was hard and boring. All we did was testing. My teachers seemed to be frustrated with me and I didn’t know why. One day my teacher called my mom at home. I had argued with her at school. I was having a bad day and was feeling frustrated. We had our big end of the year test coming up and if I didn’t pass, I thought I would have to stay in the third grade. My mom and dad decided to help me. I went to a doctor who checked my ears. She said I had Auditory Processing Disorder which means I have a hard time listening and then remembering what I hear or explaining it. My new teacher in fourth grade helps me. She talks to me so I can hear her. She even helps me be better with my work. I like fourth grade now and I especially like science. I want to be a scientist when I get older. Sometimes I forget to take my time and do my work but I am better and I have the most reading points in my class. I love to read and my favorite books are the Percy Jackson Series. My mom and dad say I am a hard worker and now I like school a lot more!

    Kaden, I am so glad you didn’t give up! Learning is important even when you don’t like your teachers. Thank goodness you have one that works with you this year. Did you know that science is my favorite subject, too? And my kids and I loved the Percy Jackson books. We have a lot in common!

    Hey Kaden,
    Thank you for having the courage to tell your story. Sometimes it is not easy to let others know we are struggling in something and need help. We can think it shows we are weak. My greatest moments in my life came when I recognized I needed help, went to someone I trusted, and let them know about my challenges and together I overcame the problem. Way to reach out and overcome. Just like the day we were playing “Pig” in your driveway. You are a hero to many! Grandpa Stoddard
