Helpful Form Email from Teacher to Parents

 

Good morning,

So far this quarter, we have been working on the development of four skills in Civics.  In Infinite Campus, you will see 4 summative grades (one for each) skill recorded.  These scores make up your first quarter grade.  You will also see other grades entered.  These grades are practice for each skill, and do not count toward the quarter grade.  They are called formatives.  Per district policy, homework and practice do not count toward the final grade.

We will continue working on these skills in each unit moving forward in our upcoming units on The Executive Branch, The Legislative Branch, and The Judicial Branch.

All summative assessments can be made up, or re-taken, once your student has reflected on their effort and progress and requested a re-take with me.  Students have three weeks to make up or re-take these assessments from the date they were given.

Overall, students are doing very well, and we are looking forward to learning about the Presidency as we explore various aspects of the 2020 Presidential Election.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out via email:---  I am happy to talk with you about your student's progress.

Thanks, and have a great day!
