I am a teacher too and more than 60% of my students are failing.  I wonder if 4th quarter is going to be pass/fail.  Students have given up on the most part.  [/quote]

Most of my students come to class and do the work that I assign, so they are doing OK.

But I do have about 5-10% of the students each week who just won't do any hard work.    If I give them something easy, and sit on them, basically, they will complete the assignment but I have to have them right there in front of me (on Zoom) and not let them log off until I see they have actually turned in the work.  Not unlike during in person school, when we have to tell kids they nee to finish their work before they can go to recess.  (We aren't officially allowed to do that, but in reality that is how you get some kids to put something down on their paper.)  With kids on Zoom, they can just leave when they want so we don't have recess to hold over them... so it is harder and harder to get this small group to turn in their assignments.

But I truly don't expect kids who wouldn't do the work the first time to do it over break!  Maybe ONE kid and only if I threten he won't pass to the next grade.[/quote]
