The only way some elementary parents know how well their child is doing in school is by the report card? Don't they review their returned child's assignments to see how they are doing?

My child's work comes home but there is never anything more than a sticker, a check, or a P. [b]There is rarely anything marked wrong other than circling a misspelled word.[/b] [b]She received an ES once or twice but there was nothing explaining what was good about what she did. Frankly, it didn't look that different from things she had done with a P. The rubrics are never sent home so its not like you could even look at that and see if your child did what they were supposed to do, I guess this is what the check is meant to do.

If you want to know how well your child is doing in school, my suggestion is to look at your child's work. Not how the teacher marked the work. What your child actually did.[/quote]

Excuse me but I clearly wrote that I am looking at my child's work. Her answers are correct. There are no comments from the teacher on what she could have done better or what she did well. There are no rubrics that explain what was expected from the assignment. In math, her answers are always correct and she doesn't have any erase marks so she seems to get the answer fast and correct the first time. Her writing has not improved since the fall. [/quote]
