• The fifth grade students are evaluated on the A, B, C, D, F grading system. The following explains what each grade represents:

    100-93%...................A

    92-90%.....................A-

    89-88%.....................B+

    87-83%.....................B

    82-80%.....................B-

    79-78%.....................C+
     
    77-73%.....................C
     
    72-70%.....................C-
     
    69-68%.....................D+
     
    67-63%.....................D
     
    62-60%.....................D-
     
    59-0%.......................F

     *Occasionally, I will allow students to take home graded assignments for a correct and return opportunity. I will average the original score with the corrected score to get the grade to be recorded in the gradebook. 
     

  • Standards Based Grading 

    Students grades will be based on their understanding of specific concepts. Instead of receiving a letter grade, students receive grades in multiple different learning targets and can see which concepts they understood well and which they need to improve on. Below is the scale that will be used to show student understanding of concepts. 

    4

    You demonstrate understanding beyond the standard consistently and independently.

    3

    You demonstrate understanding of grade level standards consistently and independently.

    2

    Partially or Progressing with Grade Level Standard
