Case: Teacher's Kid
You have student in your class whose mother is a teacher in your school system. This student is very difficult in class and refuses to do any work. The student has the attitude that because his mother is a teacher, he is going to pass no matter what. His mother frequently comes to the school for meetings with her child's teachers asking them to do whatever they can to help him. You continue to offer help as far as tutoring, offering to take late assignments, extra credit assignments, yet the student continues to just do the minimum. The student brings his grade up to almost passing, by the end of the semester. On one of the last days of school, you ask students to write a reflection about the class, this student writes that he didn't do anything in the class all semester, and knew he was going to pass regardless because its always been that way for him. Do you give him the grade he earned, or give him that extra point or two to pass him along to avoid conflict?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Don't "give" him anything. He has to earn it. Giving and giving and not making students work for it is what is wrong with our world today. People expect handouts instead of earning what they have. I see it at school all the time. I hope my son never gets that attitude about school. He would definitely have another thing coming if he did. That teacher needs to stress the importance of performing well at school and actually putting forth effort to earn good grades. I would have a very long heart to heart with the parent about their child's mentality. |
