[quote=Anonymous]Teacher here. I think a lot of people are failing to mention the population of kids have changed. Their attention spans are awful and if things aren’t fun, they shut down. Add onto kids learning English and more kids with an IEP and schools everywhere are a hot mess. You can be the best teacher and have high expectations and you still will have these struggles. The US needs to change the narrative that not all kids need to get a 4 year degree. We need to stop looking at these kids as just data points. I do think Upper ES (5th and 6th) should start following secondary grading practices to better help parents/kids understand where their kid is performing. The 4,3,2,1 is meaningless. [/quote]
