[quote=Anonymous]I feel ya, OP. This kind of thing is crushing to a kid that age. My son has experienced much of the same. (Did an online translation of sentences and forgot periods. The computer gave him 0%, but he wasn't the only one and the teacher did give the kids partial credit the next day.) I think it helps to explain that this is how school "works" - to me, I'm glad he learned what he was supposed to learn and that's the important thing, but to get the grades, you have to remember the details and double check your work. Also agree with pp that he should talk to the teacher(s) about making up the points. At every job I've ever had, the people who get ahead are the ones who get things done, not the follow rules at all costs/never make a mistake people. [/quote]
