In the past two years, our Biology department has worked on transitioning to standard based grading. We have developed and implemented weekly standard checks that are based on daily learning targets. These short 15-minute quizzes check for understanding of the week’s daily learning targets. These quizzes are graded using zip grade, which give…Read More

This is something that we are doing at my school as well, across all content areas. We are finding that it is an excellent way to formatively assess.

That is the correct link. Very useful tool for breaking down formative assessment data instantly.

I have used that before and it made grading very simple and fast!

Our math dept. uses weekly mastery checks for the learning targets. This is definitely something I would like to develop to use in the English dept. as well. This would be a new formative assessment we could add to our dept. for use for next year.

A concern we are all feeling. Does seem to be more with less these days.

We had to consolidate our elementary schools two years ago and the middle and high school last year. Many of our teachers are worried what the future holds. These new requirements will make it nearly impossible for our district to stay afloat.

You have hit upon what seems to be the greatest concern with Opportunity and Access, which is resources and the variation between schools. The rich curriculum piece is asking for what is circled in the attached graphic at elementary and the course codes are to come from the listing.

Also, I spoke to my Original Trainers and asked them how many videos they had created this year since the training. They had stated that they had created over 100 videos this year. A lot of hands on training going on with this group. A lot of their work focuses around a high school entrepreneurial grant that focuses on building a video…Read More
