Kids school reports

[keods]

Quick fact:

In 2012 %95 of Australian School kids have failed Naplan and Half yearly exams, now i am getting worried real bad about my results i only know i passed maths…..

95%? You're taking the piss surely…

Are you referring to all levels Keods

My young fella did Year 3 level of Naplan this year and said it was easy

Sorry i meant high school, did you miss it? it was on 10 news a couple days ago…

Yeah well I'd like to thank the teachers for putting the effort in to do these reports. My child isn't one to tell me much about what's going on at school, and work commiitments mean I can't go into the class very often. So it's great to get a snapshot on how they are developing - it's eye opening too, the things I think she likes/tries in and the things she actually likes and tries in. Of courseI read the general comment the most but thanks for the rest too.

Hey Teachers

Could you answer a question ??

Using the A,B,C ,D and E system with 26 kids in the classroom what would the breakdown of A,s to E's be ??

 

[Suzie-Q]

In my class, it's just what they get in their assessments. no Bell curve or anything like that, so for my littlies (I teach Yr 1), I have 18 kids, with no E's, 6 D's, 4 B's and 8 C's.

Everthing is moving along O.K. with C's, which means achieving where you should be for the grade you are in.

Would year three be the same TG Young fella got all B's bar 1 C

B's generally mean achieving beyond general grade expectations (probably one year beyond - so grade 4),so a bag full of B's is good.

Thanks for the feedback TG We are proud of him He is good boy Sometimes lack confidence in himself but thats about it

And to top it off he's a mad Tigers supporter

Must be doing something right , especially seeing he has two Grandfathers trying to convert him to the dark side (Broncs)

Sounds like he's academically on track (I'd be stoked if my Yr 6 boy brings homne a report full of B's!), so now to keep up the WT indoctrination, and he should be fine :wink:

yup, well said.. teaching imo is the most underrated "job" ever. tbh no offence to all the teachers out there but if it wasn't paid so low, i would be doing teaching. i love explaining things to my friends and personally, education is wealth imo. the more you educate someone about ANYTHING, it makes you feel a little prouder yourself.

im on a high atm after finishing my hsc last year.. some teachers though are absolutely ridiculous who have no sense of passion for the occupation.

good job teachers :slight_smile:

Both of these are so true. My wife and brother are both teachers (well, the bro is now a principal, but has been a teacher for a fair while) and they are both the dedicated type… It is true that there are some teachers in it for the alleged "easy" lifestyle, but those dedicated teachers are gold... I know I am biased, but when I see my wife and brother giving so much of their own time with no regard for any compensation other than the joy that the kids receive it makes me mad that there are others out there giving these dedicated teachers a bad name... I think what most people need to realise is that there are "bad" employees in every profession, so how would you like to be tarred with the brush of the worst employee in your line of work??? Ok, my little rant has finished now, so I will just sign off by also giving my thanks to those teachers that were "born to teach"!

 

[tigergirlz]

Thanks! I'm trying to spread the "Wests Tigers" message at school too! :supporter:

 

[Suzie-Q]

Thanks for all the supportive comments. :slight_smile:

I've got my room all decked out in WT stuff and I'm lucky that our local team is the Canowindra Tigers, so it's easy to sway them to the Wests Tigers! Also helps that they're only 6!

Mate im a teacher and those reports are a tid bit of what we see everyday with a student.
TBH the parents the care about the students educations are the ones that turn up to parent teacher or if they cant ring you to ask questions about there child.

Those reports are a starting discussion point for want of anpther way to say it.
