Each assignment accounts as 10% of qtr. Grade. Quizzes and Tests Will be graded on percent correct. Quizzes count as 40% of the qtr. Grade and tests count as 50% of the qtr. Grade. Assessment & Future Instruction Results from students’ class work, quizzes, and tests will be used to determine future instruction. Mastery of the topic by 80% or more of the students will result in instruction moving to a new topic. Mastery by less than 80% of the students will result in further instruction of the material using additional graphic organizers to manipulate the content. Grouping Students are grouped together as shoulder partners. Every 3 to 4 weeks partners are reassigned randomly through pulling cards. Partners remain together for 3 to 4 weeks unless separated due to behavior. A student who is separated from his/her partner will work alone until the next reassignment at which time the student will be eligible for a partner. In the event of an “odd man out” situation, the extra student will work alone, substitute when a student is absent, or work with a group as assigned by the teacher. In quizzing/testing situations, students will work individually. Differentiation A variety of methods are incorporated to accommodate the needs of individual learner’s throughout lessons such as: Discussion (whole group, partners, and teams) Visuals (graphic organizers, charts, pictures, videos, etc.) Note taking Text features Hands on activities Informational text strategies Early finisher work IEP/504 plans Early Finishers When all work is completed, early finishers will: Work on homework or assignments from another class Read a book or their own or choose a book located on the book shelf.
