SPANISH SOCIAL STUDIES
Dear Parents:
It is a great pleasure to start a new school year 2010-2011, and work together towards the academic and personal achievement of your child (en).
In 6th to 12th grades, the Grading Policy to be used is described as follows:
Homework ………………………………… 10%
Projects and Presentations…………………. 20%
Research…………………………………… 10%
Quizzes…………………………………….. 20%
Class work…………………………………. 40%
100%
This is the explanation of the aspects to be evaluated:
Homework: will be an extension of the work the students will do in class and need to master at home.
Projects and Presentations: will involve any activity the students will need to accomplish a task following the school’s philosophy in a certain period of time (what the teacher considers appropriate)
Research: will consist on navigating in internet or visiting the library to get the necessary information asked by the teacher of a topic and present it in a written report, a Power Point Presentation or any other source to prove levels of knowledge.
Quizzes: will be applied at the end of each unit to check understanding and feedback will be given by the teacher afterwards.
Class work: will be any activity done in class, in accordance with the school’s philosophy (hands-on methodology)
The evaluation does not involve effort, behavior and attendance, since it is merely academic achievement based on Course Standards, however the students may lose the right to present either of the aspects mentioned above with out a valid excuse (medical, personal etc.). This grading policy will be applicable to every subject of the study plan.
Late work: It is very important to clarify that each aspect of the grading policy has to be turned in on time, however if the student does not present his/her work on time voluntarily will have consequences in his/ her grades as follows:
The first day of late work will be for granted (the student will still be evaluated with the total worth), the second day the due work (Homework, Projects and Presentations and Research) 5% will be deducted from the total worth. The third day of late work 10% will be deducted from the final worth. The following days of late work will not be taken into consideration for summative evaluation and will have to present his/her work anyways. Please take note of this important information for the benefit of your child’s (en’s) academic performance.
Yours Truly,
