Hi Teresa: Well, we sure want to dispel any fears! Frequent sharing of grades and earned points is important so that a student knows where they stand and have an opportunity to make corrections so it will be reflected in their grade. Waiting too long may not give that opportunity. This also gives us an opportunity to offer encouragement and support, and caring words of advice and suggestions for improvemnent, which should demonstate to the students that their teacher is interested in their success. Regards, Barry
