  1. Welcome to Mrs. Coverick’s Curriculum Night

  2. A Little About Me • I live in Mokena with my husband Paul. We’ve been married for 32 years. Together we have 2 children, a daughter-in-law, and 2 grandsons. (and a really sweet dog named Rocky!) • I enjoy spending time with family and friends. • I like to ride my bike, go for walks, and go to movies and plays. • I love teaching and helping children get excited about learning.

  3. Educational Background • I graduated from Trinity Christian College in 2004, with a bachelor’s degree in elementary education. • This is my 12th year teaching in the Summit Hill School District.

  11. Weapons Policy • “Illinois Law requires that the school officials expel a student who is determined to have a weapon at school, or any school sponsored activity or event, which bears a reasonable relationship to school. Weapons including not only guns, buy also look alike, and any object used to cause or threaten injury. The expulsion from school must be for a period of time of not less than one year except that the Superintendent of the School Board may modify the expulsion period on a case-by –case basis. Students, who threaten to use a weapon, even if intended as a joke, will also be dealt seriously in order to maintain the safely of students and district 161 employees. All teachers are expected to explain this policy to all students on the first day of school.”

  12. Ways We Will “Celebrate The Child” • Assemblies • All About Me Posters • Grandparents’ Day • Field Trip • Possible Musical Performance • Wax Museum • Field Day

  13. Report Cards • Second Graders will receive a letter grade for each subject: • Reading • Language (Spelling grades will be under language.) • Math • Science • Social Studies • Music • P.E.

  14. Formative & Summative Assessments Assessments and Grading The goal of assessment is to support learning. The goal of grading is to evaluate learning. Our District’s ultimate goal is to have a grade weighting ratio of 0% Formative and 100% Summative. FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT Formative assessment is about feedback. It is practice for learning. Formative assessments refer to a student’s understanding of what they can do well and what they can improve. Formative assessments guide the next steps in the learning process. Formative assessments will count as 25% of a student’s quarterly report card grade.

  15. Assessments Continued SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT Summative assessment provides evidence of a student’s mastery of skills. Summative assessments will count as 75% of a student’s quarterly report card grade.
