今天女儿给我写的信，我和她爸爸给女儿的回复。

今天女儿的语文课有个minor grade，类似于quiz。结果班上都考得不好。我女儿也只得了60分。

然后语文老师说：“凡是得分低于70的，自己写信给家长，然后CC我。”然后听到教室里一片鬼哭狼嚎，很多亚裔孩子知道要通知家长，都吓傻了。然后语文老师又对女儿说：“你一定要通知到你妈妈。 言下之意，你有个亚裔虎妈。她会fix your grade。

这是女儿写给我和她爹的信：

Dear Parents, 

 

In Mr.B's class， I have gotten a 60 on one of my assignments. The main reason I got a 60 is because I have lacked doing work on the assignment. Before I was with a 91 in the grade book. Now I'm having a 90 in the grade book. I have worked on it at home but with my swim, homework from other classes, and my parents. It's hard to catch up. I do get class time to work on it, but as Mr.B states "Y'all dilly dally"  which I do, I haven't done a lot of work on the assignment. I promise to start working and quit talking to all my classmates. 

 

 

这是我写给女儿的信，当时是手机发的。也不知道这个回复她老师也能看到。

 

You have plenty of time to finish the assignment. Just stop talking to your friends on a daily basis. Finish your assignments first and then have your phone calls. It is all about the time management. Remember your leisure time on the phone is the first thing to go if you cannot find time to do your assignments.

 

 

 

这是他爹的回复:

 

Thank you for your note explaining the low score you have received in class.  It is important to get ahead of bad news and communicate as soon as possible.  Facing adversity directly and timely takes courage and self-discipline.

 

As you know your Mother and I value education, and we expect you to endeavour to learn with focus and tenacity.  Learning is not scoring high or getting a good grade, learning is understanding the topic and material at a deep level.  Grades typically take care of themselves once you focus on learning and obtaining a deep understanding of the subject.

 

Your Mother and I have great faith in you and know you can achieve great things if you can obtain the self-discipline required.  Keep at it and I know soon there will be an email to celebrate a high score.

 

感觉LD的思想政治工作做得不错啊,比我强多了.
