Grading Policy:
My grading policy
is as follows: Students may correct any paper to improve their grade.
Daily work may be corrected for full credit (A). Any student that
fails a test may correct
it for a passing grade (C).
No student should receive less than a C unless they choose not
to improve their work.
Any paper with a score
below C is returned with the word “fix” on it. Names are placed
on the board for anyone with a late paper. Students may lose part of their recesses or
be
asked to take papers home if they have late papers.
Letter grades are as follows:
A Student work is
outstanding.
B Student work is very good.
C Student work is
satisfactory.
D Student work needs
improvement.
F Student is failing.
