I ask my teacher for feedback on my work and on my class behavior.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
It is important to advocate for yourself as a middle school student- getting along and talking to your teachers outside of class time (maybe during recess or another time when they are available) is a good skill. They can give you feedback and pointers not only about your academic work, but also about your class behavior. For example, maybe your teacher would like you to speak up more in class or maybe they would like you to speak up less and let other students have a chance to share. Whatever their feedback is, make sure you take the time to say " thank you" and use this information to be the best student you can be!Rate this question:

- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
Students have very different abilities and we know now that there are multiple types of intelligence.
