As an ESL teacher my goal for my students is really never a partucular grade. Although, it would be nice if everyone always had As. But what I value most is progress and thought process. Thinking and internalizing is what moves the student forward. A grade just serves a superficial function for a report card. Students value feedback because it gives them a chance to see what they need to work on or where their mistakes are. Grades really provide no information at all.Natasha's writing kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10537109234764893856noreply@blogger.com
