[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is in a science class in a W high school where the average on the last test was 40%.  The teacher allows corrections to raise the grades, but the most the average kid in the class will get is a C on this test.

There is a method to the teacher's approach, [b]but it is clear that simply attending class and doing the assigned work does not prepare the students for the test. [/b] Would you approach the teacher about this situation?   [/quote]

Yes, that’s how it should be. They need to study and understand the material, that’s going beyond sitting in class and doing some worksheets.[/quote]

OP here, and I agree with this, but I think the students need a nudge in the right direction regarding what to study.  My kid is studying, but got only slightly above the median.  Additional problem sets to work on with solutions in the style expected for the exam would be very helpful.  I have not contacted the teacher.  I have told my kid to discuss with the teacher.  Fingers crossed for the next 2/3 of the quarter
