| writing skills Re writing skills. I have reviewed some of my son's writing which has been less than stellar. I have directed him to redo it until acceptable. His response? The teachers think its fine. Unfortunately, with some of the writings I have seen from his school, I believe he is telling the truth. For example, an invitation to a school function began, "Your invited...". He stopped me from calling the teacher about this. Another time, I wrote to the teacher via e-mail inquiring about a grade he received on something. After 3 e-mails (in the parent-teacher conference she directed us to e-mail her if any questions, etc.) I had to speak to the superintendent to request a response. Her response began with, "This is high school...". Not Dear Mrs. X, Dear Parent, Dear .... My two cents again. |
