[quote=Anonymous]I say this as a teacher, a mother, and a grandmother: It's good that your child got their first C in 4th grade. Fourth grade grades mean very little and there are no lasting consequences. This experience allows your child to learn that they currently need to either put more effort in, step up responsibility (maybe they weren't finishing or turning in work), or ask for help because a current skill is challenging them. This is a lesson that will serve them well in the future. They got a C, they survived it, and they (hopefully) do what they need to do to go back to their usual higher grades. Honestly, some skills are going to be more challenging than others and it's likely your child just hit a bump. It definitely is not something to lose sleep over. [/quote]
