Attendance

Weekly attendance will be taken Friday by 3:30 pm.  Attendance will be based on participation and completion of assignments in Google Classroom.

Grading

Assignments will be graded as either a completion grade OR with a rubric depending on the specific task which will be clarified to the students as it is posted. In some cases, students will receive a “complete” with a score of 3 or 4 or an  “incomplete” with a score of 1 or 2. In other cases, students will continue to be graded using a Standards Based Grading Scale (1-4). The work will be graded on a rubric that is attached to the assignment in Google Classroom.  Please look at the explanation for each assignment as it is posted so you know how it will be scored.

*According to district policy, all assignments are created based on 4th grade standards. If an assignment receives an incomplete score, the teacher will provide specific and timely feedback explaining how to enhance the work moving forward. Grading remotely is a new concept for elementary students. This will require a commitment to the honor system. Parents are welcome to support their child with clarifications, directions, and any modifications based-on your child’s unique needs; however, as much as possible, the assignment needs to reflect the child’s understanding.

Assignments/Updates

All assignments will be posted in Google Classroom.  Assignments will be posted weekly by Monday at 8 am.  Assignments will be due weekly on Friday by 3:30 pm.
