Case: First B
It is the end of the marking period, and I just gave my final unit test for the quarter. I passed out progress reports to my students at the end of each period. After school, I had a visit from one of my most engaged students who was crying and very upset. Her current grade is an 89.45%, and she says that she has never before received a "B" in any class. What is my next step?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Explain to her the that a B is above average. It is important to work your hardest on every assignment to reach the score you desire. Tell her that as long as she did the best she could, then she should be proud. Sometimes it takes getting a B to make that student work harder next time. I can relate this to a coaching experience. I had a player who started every game but they started to slack. The first time she didn't start she was devestated. Of course, it killed me too, but I stuck to it. The next game she came out playing the best I've ever seen. It's important to give the student the grade they deserve and explain to them how the can reach their goal next time. |

Comments: I agree that it is important to stick by the rules. A B is an great grade. The student should be proud but understand that she can either work a little harder or ask for help if needed. |
