Formative assessments are a form of evaluative communication. These assessments exhibit the student's progress toward the learning target and count for 10% of the student's final grade.Summative assessments demonstrate mastery of the standards, communicate what the student knows at the time of the assessment, and count towards 90% of the student's final grade.
Work habits/Behavior will communicate student choices in class.
Retake Policy
In an effort to help every student be successful and attain his/her potential, the sixth grade language arts team has developed the following plan which provides opportunities for further instruction, targeted re-assessment, and achievement of the learning targets:
- Students who receive less than 80% on a summative assessment are eligible for the retake process. Not studying for a quiz or test is not a valid reason for a retake.
*The student will be given the higher grade between the original assessment and the reassessment up to an 80% - All class assignments and homework aligned with the assessment must be completed prior to original assessment (extenuating circumstances will be considered).
- Retake plan: The student is responsible for both initiating and actively participating in the retake processin accordance with the county policy time frame.
- There may be additional requirements based on the type of assessment and individual circumstances.
