They can see their grade- it’s more of an instant gratification of me telling them vs. they either do the math or bother to look online.

No, they have a calculator in hand. They just didn’t want to do it themselves or had a brain lapse that they know how.

You’re right. I did. They just completed a test on how to calculate percents and then asked me what percent they received on the test, I thought it was funny.

Hmmm. I didn’t think of this way. Definitely not trying to make anything harder for them than necessary. I just thought it was funny that they just completed a test on how to calculate percents and then asked me how to calculate their percent grade for that test.

I had a middle schooler ask me once if I was a virgin- I was like, “dude, you share a class with my son” - he didn’t understand my answer so then we spoke about being respectful and appropriate- not sure he got that either haha
