Rick Wormeli how do we as an SBR committee help parents understand the benefits of SBG/R when they have currently started a petition against SBG/R. And suggest we go back to letter grades?! Taglines? Things to say? What to do?

I’m a fan of the new rubric grading setup. Nice to be able to select multiple students and enter info for them all at one time. Otus #learningtogether #OtusRegionalWorkshop

A new article from the San Diego Union Tribune by Kristin Taketa draws attention to inconsistencies in teachers' grading practices. sandiegouniontribune.com/news/education…

📍Students' grades should represent their current location, not an average over time. Where they were isn't important—only where they are right now. 📍 #LeadInclusion #sblchat #tg2chat #atassess #masterychat

“Guskey also says having a smaller number of grades — say, four, versus the 101 possible grades in a percentage system — reduces subjectivity and increases reliability.”

Agree!

⚠️“Exceeds the standard” is problematic on grading scales because of achieving reliability on what constitutes “exceeds.” No scale will EVER capture all strengths. Use words to describe how each student shines 🌟#LeadInclusion #sblchat #tg2chat #atassess #masterychat

🎯 People often ask, do we have data to show standards-based grading works? Here is my response. #sblchat #atassess #tg2chat #edchat #masterychat

🔜We should abandon grading practices that cause students to stop believing in their own potential. Their self-worth influences their performance. #LeadInclusion #sblchat #tg2chat #atassess #masterychat

❗️If a student is behind grade level on reading, we implement a reading intervention--no matter what grade level.❗️ #LeadInclusion #inclusion #allmeansall #successforall #spedchat #edchat
