They are really inconsistent. With some things, all the kid has to do is show up and they get an A. But other things, they get an F and they actually have to re-do it according to the strict criteria to get their grade raised. The teacher comes across as having a "whatever" attitude, but then has these very strict assignments. Diorama rubic: 4 points if ALL objects are attached securely. 3 points if 2-4 objects are insecure. 2 points if something fell off and is rolling around the diorama, etc. This prompted one parent to ask for a hot glue gun when she DROPPED the diorama on the way to school and things fell out. The teacher was bewildered and asked why the parent was trying to do the diorama for the child. Don't quote this please, since I'm going to delete it later.
If you ask the teacher about an assignment, she acts like none of it is a big deal, and if the kid fails, that's not a big deal either. But yet she has these strict criteria that she tells the kids to follow. I think there are a lot of bewildered parents/kids.
