Case: Grading Requirements
Mrs. Smith and Mr. Brown both teach third grade. Mrs. Smith has 14 grades in Reading at the midpoint of the semester. Mr. Brown only has 5. As parents get their students grades they realize many students in Mrs. Smith's class are doing well and Mr. Brown has only 3 that are passing his class. Should the teachers have the same amount of grades?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I don't think they should have the exact number of grades in the gradebook because they teach differently. However, it sounds like Mr. Brown is not assessing students enough. I think he should find ways to assess students more often to determine if they're mastering the content. When he does input grades, the grades are a true reflection of mastery. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. If he changes how he assess his students he shouldn't run into this problem again. If the parents still show concern I would suggest maybe writing letters home to parents explaining what is going on in the classroom and how he grades each student. |
