This Is Almost Never Good News …
ByYou look at the caller ID and see your daughter’s teacher is calling AGAIN! She called last week for the third time this year! Your jaw drops as she cooly informs you that your daughter did not turn in the Math homework today. How could this be? Yes, she got home and was not sure which problems to do but she called the “study buddy” all on her own and fixed that with ease. You asked her if she finished all the homework including the Math and she assured you it was all done. And you believe her because she can be trusted to tell the truth. She may be forgetful but she does not lie.
The teacher goes on to inform you that these zeroes are badly damaging your daughter’s grade and even though she gets excellent scores on the tests (usually A’s if not high A’s) but these zeroes are about to make her best possible grade a B for the semester even if she scores in the very high 90′s on EVERYTHING from here on out including the final exam. She wanted to be in the honors Math next semester and this will eliminate her from consideration for the honors program.
What will it take for this very bright girl to fulfill her potential and make her A in this Math class?
Could there be a surprisingly simple solution?
