Wednesday, September 5, 2018

September 5, 2018

agenda things:
1) feedback from spreadsheet 
-Strikethrough the wrong answers, add up correct questions & put in FINAL SCORE column.
-NOt grading standards based - give raw score % out of 100 points in Progression

2) retakes for vocab? take average of the two? error analysis?
-standard grade will change in Mastery; the quiz grade in Progression will stay the same
-75% or below needs to do a retake; we will allow ALL to do the retake since we're using class time anyways
-differentiation for higher performers: writing assignment, HSA/IMA packet (needs to be made), OR desmos, or any other application problems
-ALVEY will make a copy of previous quiz as a retake & make a bit.ly link to do (FRIDAY??)

3) How do we want to put in gradebook
-Standard 1 & 2 "part A" as a grade in Mastery out of 20 AND quiz in Progression

4) google form fill in blanks better way to grade? 
-everyone agrees with using the "strike-through" method 

5) Pacing/standards?
-ALL (not sure about Clark) will have covered supplementary, complementary, & vertical angles by Friday.
-playdough activity in advanced for 9/6 & playdough in regular next week.
