Grading Policy

We follow a points based grading system.  Each assignment or activity is allotted a point value. 

• Practice - homework, classwork, weekly My Path Lesson

• Checkpoint - independent activity completed at the conclusion of each lesson within a unit

• Assessment - independent activity completed in class at the conclusion of each unit

• Performance Task - independent activity completed in class/homework at the conclusion of each unit

Assignments

Each week, students are responsible for passing one i-Ready My Path lesson and completing their log.  Any additional assignments will be posted daily on the 6th Grade Homework Blog.

i-Ready My Path Lesson - due each Friday

5 points - Completed and passed on time

4 points - Completed, passed, and late (by Monday)

3 points - Completed but not passed

0 points - Not completed

Homework Policy

It is the 6th grade philosophy that students must practice skills independently to reinforce their learning.  Therefore, if an assignment is one day late, it will lose points.  Any assignment received two or more days late, will earn half credit.  Materials that are not turned in will receive a grade of zero.

Absence

It is the student’s responsibility to get any notes, assignments, or handouts missed when absent.  Please check the 6th Grade Homework Blog, PowerSchool, and Google Classroom.  If a student misses a checkpoint or an assessment, the student must arrange a make-up time.
