[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD got a bunch of Is for things the teacher knows she knows. She's sometimes uncooperative about doing her work. I've read they are supposed to grade on mastery and not effort but it looks like our school doesn't care about that.[/quote] The teacher can only know what your DD knows if your child is able to demonstrate it consistently. Classwork is usually one major way for a student to "show what they know", especially in K. I think that may be something you might want to work with your DD on, because I'm not sure how the teacher can be expected to assess skills that aren't being demonstrated somehow through a final work product. Cooperation and staying on task are hard for many kids in kindergarten, luckily the report card from K really isn't very important in the grand scheme of things and it's more about instilling good habits and a strong foundation for future academic success.[/quote]
