[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I guess I assumed that the purpose of tests in 6th grade (elementary school) is to assess what content the student has actually learned.

[b]By translating the Spanish words into English, he showed that he knows quite a bit (and what he did was harder than what she was asking for).[/b]

But he got 0 credit at all, as if she thinks that he doesn't know what those words mean. Which, after all, is supposedly the purpose of the class??[/quote]

But clearly not since he didn't understand the directions well enough to have understood them....[/quote]

OP here. He's not the only kid who did this, half the class did the same thing.[/quote]

Did half the class get no credit for not understanding the directions?

So strange that you're upset about this, when the teacher is not singling out your DS, seems to be trying to get her students to pay more attention the the question.  Since it is apparently a widespread issue.[/quote]
