[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids learn more when they have a chance to relearn and retake. I know that there’s a belief it leads to grade inflation but the point is for kids to learn. We’ve had a few teachers in MCPS allow it over the years but first the teachers required students to participate in a reteaching activity. I thought this was sensible. One of my 3 kids attended a private school where they could retake to earn back 50%. It was a real motivator for him to keep at difficult concepts. Ask yourself what’s the goal?[/quote] Goal is for other kids to get lower grades so my kid can get into HYPMSCTIG[/quote]
