Grades
I am a strong believer is giving feedback on majority of assignments and giving points for hard work. You will see on PowerSchools that your child has many grades - most of them are in class assignments and worth 5-20 points and the major assignments are worth 100. I typically offer time in class to work on the vocabulary (hw) and study guides (hw).
If your child sees a 0 (missing) on powerschools it is either because they did not turn it in, it is sitting in the pile of late work to grade, or on the rare occasion I did not write down the grade. I tell the students to keep the work I hand back so if there is discrepancy they can show me the work. All graded work returned to them will either have a check mark, number, or comment to show it has been graded.
