Course Grading: I will be using a point system for grades this semester. All students will start at zero. Instead of starting off the semester with 100 and going down, students will start at the bottom and work their way up. As assignments are turned in and feedback is provided their grade will improve.
By using points students will also always know their grade. To figure out their grade they would take the average of how many points they have divided by how many they could have.
Below are how many points each type of assignment can get:
Summative (Unit Tests): 60 points
Formatives (any classwork and quizzes): 35 points
Miscellaneous: (review games, completing “can do’s” and participation, 5 points
