Elementary Fourth 9-Week Expectations and Grading Guidelines
Due to the COVID-19 school at-home learning, MISD has revised the elementary expectations and grading guidelines that will begin on April 6, 2020. Numerical grades will be frozen as of March 6, 2020. The fourth 9-week grading period will be taken into account for promotion at the end of the year.
Student Expectations:
Kindergarten through Fifth Grade:
Required Assignments Per Week:
2 assignments in Reading, integrated with Social Studies
1 assignment in Writing
2 assignments in Math
1 assignment in Science
“Required” assignments will count towards the grading guidelines below, and teachers will notify through a weekly system of which days each “required” assignment will be posted. Due dates will not factor into the pass/fail grading.
“Optional” assignments will be posted on other days for additional credit and understanding.
Students will continue daily participation in Istation, Imagine Math, and/or Education Galaxy for 60-90 minutes a week for reading and 60-90 minutes a week for math. Teachers will let parents and students know which program for reading and for math.
Art, Music, and P,E, will be optional assignments, although MISD does encourage students to do these activities weekly.
Grading Guidelines:
All grade levels from kindergarten through fifth grade will follow the rubric below with an Incomplete, Fail, or Pass. During the week of April 20th, parents will receive a progress report if their child is failing based upon work assigned through April 17th.. Teachers will work with students and parents to complete or revise any failing assignments on an ongoing basis.
