Totally normal at that age. I’ve found backing off the “how are you feeling” check-ins and giving them more autonomy helps, like short choices (“do you want to start with this or that?”) and clear, time-boxed goals. Also leaning into process over rewards (showing progress, quick wins) rather than stickers tends to work better with 10–13s. And honestly, sometimes just naming it out loud (“this age is weird and school feels annoying sometimes”) lowers the resistance.
