[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is in 4th grade. The grading system makes no sense to me. My child will get everything right and get a P. She will get 4 questions wrong and get a P. She will half-ass a writing piece and get a P. She can write something really good and get a P. To me, this sends the message that, virtually any work will get a P ([b]so no need to try to hard, right?[/b]). Unfortunately, my child is picking up on this very message. She says no matter how hard I work, I get a P.:[/quote] The message I try to send my children in elementary school is that they should do their best in order to do their best, not that they should do their best in order to get a good grade. And they know the difference between something they did their best on and something they didn't do their best on.[/quote]
