Follow me and I will share some interesting stories and experiences on a regular basis to exchange educational experiences together.
It is a common situation in people's lives to take leave when they are sick, and this time we are going to talk about a fifth-grade Satoshi. He had to stay in the hospital for 30 days because he was unwell, during which time he asked his teacher for a month off. However, parents are concerned about their children's math learning and want to contact their math teachers to postpone make-up classes. However, the math teacher directly refused, saying that it was unrealistic and that he did not have time, and suggested that parents send their children to cram schools for make-up classes.
This article discusses the rationale for parents to ask teachers to postpone make-up classes, and explains why postponement is unrealistic by revealing factors such as the current state of education and school regulations.
Xiao Cong took a month off due to illness, and his parents were worried that his math grades would not be able to keep up, so they contacted the math teacher, hoping to make up for the child's lessons during the extended class. However, the math teacher directly rejected the request, saying that it was unrealistic and that he did not have time. The decision caused some controversy, and the child's classmates and other parents began to express different opinions on the situation.
However, from a holistic perspective, the math teacher's rejection of the parent's request was reasonable. First of all, late classes are usually not for one student, but for the entire class, so it is not possible to make up lessons for one student individually. Secondly, the term make-up class sounds scary and is strictly forbidden in many schools. If other students learn that a math teacher is using a late lesson to make up lessons for a particular student, other parents may disagree. Therefore, the requirement for make-up classes is not particularly reasonable.
In response to this question, it is believed that parents should try their best to help their children with tutoring classes at home during their children's sick leave. There are plenty of learning resources available online, and you shouldn't expect teachers to make up lessons because there are big risks associated with doing so. If there is a problem after the teacher makes up the lesson, the parent may take legal action to hold the teacher accountable. Therefore, it is in line with the normal way for a math teacher not to give make-up lessons.
This question also needs to be viewed from two aspects: the current situation and regulations of the school. During the previous flu peak, it was very common for students to take time off work because they were sick. The school has made clear regulations on this, and tells students the content of today's class, the corresponding number of pages of textbooks, and the relevant information of online classes every day through group chats. Students can take online classes at home if their physical condition allows. If you can't support your body, you can study through online replay at the end of the following week.
Therefore, parents ask math teachers to make up lessons for their children during late lessons, which is actually excessive. In the school's regulations, there is no explicit requirement for teachers to make up lessons for students during extended hours, because the teacher's work is for the whole class, not for individual children.
In addition, there was such a case in our school. A parent took a 10-day vacation due to illness, and when he returned to school, he found that his child was not studying well, and the parent himself was not able to make up for the teaching. So, this parent went to school** and asked the school not to take into account what the child did not learn during the illness in the final exam. This parent's approach is undoubtedly unreasonable, because the school exams are based on content in normal learning situations, and the exam questions are based on knowledge within the curriculum standards. If a student does not study a certain part of the content due to his or her own reasons, the school has no responsibility or obligation to make special arrangements.
To sum up, it is not a reasonable request for parents to ask teachers to postpone make-up classes. Parents should do their best to help their child with tutoring during the period when their child is sick and on leave. After all, there are plenty of learning resources available on the web. The school also has its own rules, and the teacher's main job is for the whole class, and there is no special make-up lesson for one student. Therefore, if parents have different opinions on this issue, they are welcome to discuss it.
