You might ask, what is RWA Syndrome? Well, it is RenWeb Anxiety Syndrome. The Symptoms of RWA (RenWeb Anxiety Syndrome) include:
o Excessive checking of your child’s grades on RenWeb.
o Breaking out into a cold sweat when you see a summary of your child’s grades.
o Inability to see the BIG PICTURE.
o Carpal tunnel as a result of emailing Mrs. Fisher about RenWeb grades.
o Loss of vision from checking RenWeb hourly.
If you are experiencing one or more of these symptoms, here is the RWA (RenWeb Anxiety Remedy):
o Check the Red Folder papers weekly, and correct mistakes with your child. This practice will give a more accurate account of where your child may need extra help.
o Decrease the amount of time spent on RenWeb. Maybe try checking once a week after you have reviewed the papers with your child.
o Remember grades are not a true reflection of your child’s progress and developmental growth.
Mild side affects associated with the remedy for RWA include:
o Random smiling.
o Peace of mind about your child’s development.
o Excitement about what’s happening in first grade.
o Clarity of vision.
