CIVICS- Students have an opportunity to make up some points after a very disappointing Unit Test. I have opted not to offer a retake as many students said they didn't spend very much time studying the study guide I provided the class. I don't feel like offering a retake is sending the right message. I have previously allowed the class a retake of a quiz that wasn't up to expectation. Both time students had a study guide and didn't make use of it.
To earn points, students may do the following:
1. Hand write every missed question with the right answer. in the following format. Remember it is to all be hand written.
____B___ What is the difference between an authoritarian government and a democratic government? Answer here
For every correct answer 1/2 a point will be earned. Students only have until Monday's class time to deliver these to me. The end of the marking period is very near and I need enough time to get them graded. I will not accept any after 2:00 pm on Monday.
I realize we have very few grades in the grade book, so this is an opportunity that some students need very much. I have a plan for the next marking period to get more points in the grade book and still follow the curriculum that is expected of me. Have a good weekend.
