The midterm exam is over, what the teacher wants to tell parents most

After the first midterm exam of the new school year, the school held a parent-teacher meeting. The parent-teacher meeting was held with unprecedented enthusiasm, and the teachers were surrounded by parents asking questions. Especially the parents of students whose exam rankings dropped from the monthly exams or the beginning of the semester are chasing the teacher to find out the reason. Regarding this question that has been asked countless times by parents, I really want to tell them: the current ranking is really not important! From a utilitarian point of view, our usual studies and examinations are ultimately for the future college entrance examination. The current ranking does not represent future college entrance examination results, nor will it be included in future college entrance examination results. The one who ranks first in the examination at this time may lose his reputation by then, and the one who is temporarily lagging behind at this time may win the first prize in the toad palace by then. All exams now have only one function, which is to test students’ knowledge mastery. This is the true meaning of the exam. Unless you are a god of learning or a master of academics, if you occasionally rank high once or twice, it is just that the test questions may not have covered your knowledge shortcomings and covered up your shortcomings. From this point of view, if you do not do well in the exam at this time, you can discover the shortcomings and deficiencies, and then make effective corrections so that you will no longer make mistakes in the college entrance examination in the future. This is not a bad thing. In fact, the school has many exams, and each exam is very random. It is very normal for students\’ rankings to fluctuate. For example, if there are 1,000 students in a grade, in a section where scores are concentrated, there may be a gap of dozens of students for every 5 points. And 5 points is just the score of a multiple-choice question in a certain subject. We know that most students have questions that they are not sure about in the exam, and sometimes they are confused. If you are lucky and get most of the multiple-choice questions you don\’t know right, your ranking will rise a lot in one go. Otherwise, your ranking may not be ideal. In addition, if a certain big question happens to be a knowledge point that you don\’t know, you will lose 10 or 20 points, which will be more obvious in the ranking. Therefore, it does not make much sense to worry about the rankings of a few or dozens of people in a certain general examination. After the midterm exam, parents should not only care about the ranking, but should do the following things in a down-to-earth manner: First, find out where the points were lost. Compare the test papers, and work with your children to find out which questions lost points and which knowledge points they belong to, so that you are aware of them. The second is to find out the reasons for losing points. Is it due to insufficient knowledge, sloppiness or nervousness, or other reasons? In this regard, through communication with the teacher and the child himself, the root cause of the disease must be accurately found. The third is to formulate targeted plans. When problems are discovered, we must find ways to correct them. If you have not mastered the knowledge points, whether it is through reviewing on your own or asking the teacher to ask, you must make up for it as soon as possible and don\’t owe money. If you are often nervous during exams, you need to find ways to adjust mentally. In short, it is necessary to formulate a highly targeted plan and be targeted. Fourth, we must ensure the implementation of the plan. Many things are easier to think about than done. Only when parents and children make plans together and supervise their implementation can the true merits be fulfilled. After completing the above links, the exam is truly over. It can even be said that the steps behind the exam are more important than the exam itself. In short, parents must remember that examinations are used to discover problems. existIn all normal exams, we should be downplayed by rankings and focus on the weaknesses exposed in the exam. Then, form a fixed post-examination procedure, start with the details, check for omissions and fill in the gaps, and consolidate the children\’s knowledge foundation bit by bit. Only in this way can children\’s grades improve little by little and achieve satisfactory results in the future college entrance examination.
