Formative vs. Summative Grades:

  • Formative grades- where students learn and practice the material. The purpose of these assignments are to show progress toward academic behaviors (turning work in on time, following instructions, completing assignments, etc). You will see formative grades in the gradebook, however they are worth 0% of the overall grade. Theses scores will be used to evaluate academic behaviors (Engagement/Work Completion/Utilizes Feedback and Resources) that are included on progress reports and the report card. Although these assignments are not part of the overall grade, they are vital in mastering content standards.
  • Summative grades- where students show that they know the content, or can perform the skill (can be tests, quizzes, essays, projects, presentations, etc). Summative grades are worth 100% of the overall grade.
