[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the issue I’m seeing - teachers aren’t grading the practices - they are marking them “not for grading” or just giving the answer key and then an A because the practices don’t count. Then when it comes to assessments they are being graded, but the student does not get to take the assessments home because teachers want to reuse the tests. So not only does the student not get to learn from the practice they also do not get to study what they got wrong on the test to prepare for the next time the “skill” is assessed. It is a hot mess - by the way I am a new poster on this thread. [/quote] This is what I’m seeing as well. In some classes (for math) this is ok because there are a ton of grades each quarter. But in most of the others, there are 4-5 “practice” grades that aren’t actually graded and only 2-3 real grades. So much pressure on the kids. So much confusion for teachers, parents, and most importantly the students. [/quote]
