[quote=Anonymous]I have kids in 1st and 3rd, and they have both now received some ES's, the older one more than the younger one. I'd think of a P as an A (more or less). I'd think of an ES as EC, as in Extra Credit. My child can have a math exit card with every single thing correct. 100%. Grade: P. OR my child can have a math exit card with everything correct and grade ES. The difference? One that day, for whatever reason, instead of just "showing her work", she decided to show how to get the correct answer 3 different ways: number line, pictures, structured equation. She wasn't "more correct" on the second one, she just did lots of extra work. Did your school show you the birthday cake analogy at Back to School Night? The beautiful round well-decorated birthday cake is the P. That is the goal. The castle-shaped Martha-Stewart-on-crack cake gets an ES. Though they didn't actually use the word crack...[/quote]
