[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so sick of the teacher response, “maybe this isn’t the right class for you” in response to kids struggling or asking for help. Shouldn’t challenging material require some of a struggle / extra effort?? That response from the teacher - which my kids also encountered, always in math btw - is the opposite of the resilience-building we are encouraged to foster in kids. I think most teachers have given up doing all but the minimum. So sadly OP, yes I think you need to help your kid find khan academy videos and use the peer tutoring centering (which is very hit or miss at our school). [/quote] This happened to my daughter. She got 100s in regular math classes (obviously not challenged enough there), but the honors teacher/chair of the math department would not allow her to stay in honors classes after getting a high 60s on the two assessment exams in the first two weeks. There was zero interest in helping her meet the challenge.[/quote]
