Cal is very lazy, and has not looked at the information the whole time he was away. He is not even close to being ready for this test, and doesn't really care if he has to retake Algebra 1. He told me "My mother took Algebra 1 four times." I told him that he has to get to Algebra 2 in high school to get a diploma, so he doesn't want to do that. He has moments where he tries to motivate himself, and focus. He always has a hard time staying focused, but I think that is just a disinterest in the information and extreme laziness. We crack jokes, and have fun, and I love the moments when he tells me he wants to learn a more complicated way of approaching a problem, or tells me that he wants to practice more of a specific type of problem. It shows potential.
