[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I'm not saying he shouldn't get points taken off for these things. But rather, [b]his teachers are marking them totally wrong[/b] and giving no points at all even though he did demonstrate learning. [/quote] You are describing your kid writing answers that are "totally wrong." In that case, he gets no points. You don't appear to grasp the concept that following instructions is part of the task. It is not a freestyle show-whatever-you-know. Have your kid read instructions to you. Ask him to explain to you what he is being asked to do. Have him practice underlining each part of a prompt/instruction set that indicates a portion of what is required. If there is a rubric, make him read over the highest category section with you. When he is done with homework, make him do these things again to make sure he has fully completed the task. This needs to be part of the studying process for your kid.[/quote]
