[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 532923"] I live in New York state and here kids have to take Regents Exams, which are state wide tests that kids have to take and pass in order to graduate high school. When I was in 1oth grade I had to take my first math Regents, and math was my absolute worst subject. I will never forget that there was a question at the end of the test where I had to show the work. I knew what the answer was, but I couldn't figure out how to show the work. I lost something ridiculous like 10 points because of that. I a passed the test, but the teacher made a HUE deal out of the fact that I "refused" to show the work. She just didnt get it, either. I am REALLY glad to hear that husband and you are in difficult child's corner. If you son is telling the teacher that he doesn't know how to do what she wants him to do, why doens't she be the teacher that she's supposed to be and try helping him? Would your son be willing to do a session of extra help, or does he have a friend that is doing well in math who could show him how to do it? difficult child has a friend, who is a difficult child himself, and my difficult child has helped the other difficult child with math quite a few times. The mothers LOVES him for it! LOL!! [/QUOTE]
