[quote=Anonymous]No problem.  I can see why you felt that way if you missed the point.  I feel like maybe the grade isn't supposed to be an average but it was clearly explained to me that all grades are definitely an average and NOT representing where the child is at the time of the report card.

Also, the teacher knows my son is an enthusiastic learner and we do things at home (hoepfully fun learning games).  Why wouldn't he mention this? "Hey, I'm grading your kid on something I haven't had time to teach yet so go over it at home, will ya?"  No problem.

I think if your child is about to get an N on something, the teacher should warn you so you can help your child before he gets that grade.  At our conference, everything was just wonderful and nothing to work on.  This is really something that would not have taken much time to teach and reinforce (now that I think about it, why didn't the teacher just introduce it earlier if he was grading the kids on this!!)

As I learn this new system, I feel like I'm going to have to email the teacher and ask, "Is my child not doing well on anything you are grading him on but not teaching yet?"
That seems like the dumbest (yet very necessary) question!!
