[quote=Anonymous]I get that. But as I mentioned he’s a tough grader in a very tough class. The way he grades is causing stress - it’s disingenuous to say grades don’t matter. If a teacher truly wanted to have kids focus on learning instead of grades - then don’t have grades. Pass/Fail would work. Conferences are coming up soon. And I’m thinking about discussing this with him in a way that’s non-confrontational. But I think figuring out the motivation behind this philosophy would help my kid who is a junior and, yeah, focused on his gpa this year. Any ideas for how to do this?[/quote]
