[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, teachers often feel under pressure to show significant growth for each student throughout the year. So, giving a bunch of kindergartners ones for the first quarter of the year sets them up to easily show growth when they’re able to show that a child reached a three or four by the end of the year. Teachers should of course score their students where they are, but the temptation is there to lowball your kids. If it troubles you, OP, push back, meet with the teacher and if you aren’t satisfied, ask to meet with the teacher. I agree that giving students ones without providing parents with feedback on what the problem is and how parents can support at home, is problematic. [/quote]
