Case: Transitioning from Standards Based to Numerical Grades
Going from second to third grade is such a big transition. Up until now, students and parents have only been exposed to one form a grading, which is standards based. All of a sudden, the work load changes, and they way students are assessed is more intense. For some, this is the first time a parent may see a F on their child's assignment, or report card, in their entire life. What are some ways to make this transition a bit smoother?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Under standards-based grading, you could try a hybrid system. You could try assigning your standards-based grading feedback a number that is between 0 and 100. I really do not like this, but it does connect with parents better. Just a little background about myself, I am on the district's standards-based grading council in a district that does use standards-based grading for K-12. We assign a 100 for complete mastery, an 89 for good but not able to teach the standard, a 75 for learning but still needs improvement for mastery, and a 60 for a lack of mastery. |
