[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thoughts on the new intensive process for remediation and retakes?  Last year the kids were able to do corrections to demonstrate and move on.  This year they have to fill out a multi-page form about why they made mistakes and what they'll do next time.  Then they have to do the corrections and meet with the teacher.  Then they have to retake the entire test.

I get the point that they want to make sure the kids learn the material, but DC is now stuck in a hole trying to study for the next unit while doing all this extra stuff for the last test.  Does anyone have kids who are also overwhelmed by this new process?  As a parent, do you have any suggestions or strategies to support your students?  I'm concerned DC is simply going to give up since it will feel like there's no way to get caught up.   [/quote]

So you are mad bc the teacher won’t just give him an easy A

Imagine they used to just give you a grade on the test and that was it. There was no retake. I think it needs to go back to that. [/quote]
