Assessments & Grading
There are 2 forms of assessments that are used in second grade. Formative assessments are given throughout the trimester to guide instruction and evaluate student progress. Summative assessments are given at the end of a unit of study which indicates mastery.
GRADING SCALE
AC - Achieving
PR - Progressing
LP - Limited Progress
You will not see many worksheets coming home with grades on them. The reason for this is that much of work is done in the classroom with reading groups, book talks, writing workshop folders, and math journals. Your student may bring any of their workshop folders or journals home at any time if you would like to see class work. Writing pieces will be sent home at the end of each trimester after students choose pieces for evaluation.
