[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish more teachers would grade appropriately. I teach English and I refuse to hand out anything over a 95% on any written assignment. I won't give 100s anymore. It's blatantly false to admit that any student is capable of perfection. The highest grade a student has received for a MP all year in my class is a 94% and I don't see that changing[/quote] If none of your students is capable of writing a flawless essay, perhaps you ought to rethink your approach to writing instruction. At this point in the year, your students should be able to follow the writing process and produce a proper essay.[/quote] When you give students 100s, they have nothing to work towards in terms of improvement. When they get 100s on essays in 9th grade, they will always produce 9th grade essays because they have never been told how to improve them.[/quote]
