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!)
I would explain to the student the process for calculating grades and emphasize the importance of every assignment and test. I would also explain that a 'B' is not bad and certain classes don't always come as easy to some students as it does for others. Hopefully it is the push the student needs to work harder for an 'A' in the future if that is what is really important to them. |

Comments: I think that I would avoid using saying certain classes don't always come as easy to some students. |

Comments: It's not a good idea to say that to a student. Especially one who puts their all into each and every class. |
