[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but if there is no textbook what do they test on? If they are all finding information on various websites then what do they study? Are the tests essays or multiple choice? I would be puzzled on how to help my kid prepare. [/quote]

[b]You shouldn’t be helping your child to prepare for a test.[/b] A teen who is in high school should be old enough to figure out how to prepare for tests in his own classes. What will your child do when it’s time for college if you are preparing him/her for every test

This is not correct.  Many 9th graders have NO idea HOW to study for an exam.  Learning this skill is important, and just like other skills, it is better to teach it and then back off than to [b]let your child figure it out through trial and error[/b]. [/quote]

That is how people learn, including teenagers.  They figure out what works for them.  [/quote]

By failing tests; great idea![/quote]

That is EXACTLY how they learn. We all learn by failing.[/quote]
