Grading

• Measuring in this class will depend mostly on self-evaluations and reflections. You will do these at the beginning, middle, and end of different unit and activities.
• You will not receive traditional grades (A, B, C, 90%, 80%, 70%) or criteria scores (1-8).
• In the MYP, we want you to focus on the process of learning, not the end result.
