[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a teen in a MoCo high school, 9th grade. He had a history assignment that he blew off til the last minute and then when he did it, it was done not at all according to instructions. My husband and I decided to not say anything about it, to let the teacher/his grade be the one to teach him the lesson. When he got the project returned (several weeks later, I might add), he received full credit for it. Ugh.[/quote] YES - happened to us numerous times in 6th grade, moved to private and the difference is amazing. The math teacher even corrected the misspelling of "Wednesday," which then led to a lesson about Latin roots and a little competition to find the one day of the week for which they couldn't find the Latin root. Thank you, Mrs. Sparling! [/quote]
