BACK TO SCHOOL STORY - Real Mum story on MoM

20 Comments

My 5 years old son who just moved to a new class, was very disappointed by the fact that, his new teacher will never gives EXCELLENT as comment for a pass mark when he has it all. So he angrily took his previous report card to her as a reminder that she ought to be giving him EXCELLENT instead of a mere GOOD as comment when he gets everything correctly. When he came back from school, I asked him, “did you get it all today?” He said “My madam knows excellent now”. Hahhahahahaha!!

Sorry but not the type of thing I would be encouraging.

  For sure he is. He is quite entertaining though very unsteady, except in school.

Little bit rude I think. I wouldn’t be encouraging my child to engage with a teacher in this manner. Very cheeky behaviour indeed. Adults need to be respected and if at 5 he isn’t doing that I fear what he will be like when he is older. I know the world has changed, but I was always taught to respect my elders. I agree positive reinforcement is great, but I don’t think your child should have gone about it this way.

The teachers probably on auto pilot when faced with a lot of marking & automatically writes good. Perhaps this prompt will make her mix up her comments a bit more.

  It should be a pedagogy setback.

I wouldn’t like my child to challenge a teacher’s comment like that.
Your son sounds like a bright child though, if he’s receiving all pass marks so congrats to him.

  At his birth, the Dr. told me that from his cry, he was going to be very intelligent. I will my dear.

    Yes I tend to agree. Whilst he should be congratulated on his marks, I wouldn’t be encouraging my son to challenge a teacher.

Oh dear. It’s important to stand up for himself, but I hope he wasn’t rude about it!

  I’m not sure he was, I called the school authorities and informed them of what he was about to do, so I am sure, everything was under control. Thanks!!
