[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello all. This is OP. Thank you everyone for your advice. I really appreciate it. Our student is understanding some concepts, but not grasping others. He said most of the class is working through the lessons as a group with the teacher circulating around the room helping the individual groups. I think getting a tutor is a good idea, because it will offer more one on one time, and our 9th grader is a bit too fond of the newly found freedom of the long high school lunch period to go everyday to get math help during lunch. But, yes - learning to study for tests is a skill they need to work on. Again, thank you all. I think he will stick it out for now, but may drop down to non-honors next year or even next semester if the struggle continues.[/quote]
You said most of the class is group work with the teacher circulating. Does the teacher offer some direct instruction to the class as a whole first and then break them into groups or are they in groups the whole time. If the latter, what are they working on and how do they know what to do?[/quote]
