[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]That's to keep kids focused on looking forward rather than backward (at retakes) and making improvement -- and having that improvement paying off. That's a good incentive to keep working.[/quote] I talk to my kid and no one is doing the work anymore if it doesn't count. SBG encourages kids to slack off. I have talked to many Madison students and this is what they say. And all the kids fail the formative assessments on a regular basis. This is not fair to Madison students. We should not be using a system that is different from the rest of the county. [/quote] If a student is passing the summative assessments, why do you care whether they took or passed the formative work? [/quote]
