[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our Kindergarten teacher showed us bar charts to show exactly where our child stood in relation to the whole class![/quote] Wow. As a teacher I’d never do this. [/quote] At the schools with the Flamboyan grants for parent engagement this is standard. [/quote] The chart is anonymous so you only know which is your child. And they tend to include 1-2 extra examples. I find it comforting but not helpful. I can’t really do anything with the information but it does remind me that my kid is normal.[/quote] 1) Would you find it comforting if you're child was at the bottom? 2) What the hell does "my kid is normal" mean. That students below the average aren't normal? That students who need extra supports aren't normal? That students who fall below a certain line aren't normal? [/quote]
