  12. Grades The grading system is based on written work (including assignments, quizzes, and tests) teacher observations, informal assessments, projects, and class participation. Grades are given on a point system, and based on the following percentages: • 90-100% A • 80-89% B • 70-79% C • 60-69% D • 0-59% F I do not “give” students grades. They “earn” them.

  14. Projects/Assignments • Almost always give a printed direction sheet. (Email attachment) • Usually it includes how the project will be graded. • Use the grading rubric/checklist to check the finished project. • I often show/read examples in class.
