Notes:
1. There will be NO HOMEWORK in Creative Writing. (If a student decides to work on something at home, that will be their own personal choice. They have permission unless instructed otherwise.)
2. All writing outside of District Benchmark Assessments and MAAP EOY Testing will be performed through Google Docs. These Docs will be shared with the teacher with editing rights at [email protected].
3. AR Incentive: Firstly, AR is OPTIONAL & EXTRA CREDIT.
The incentive is detailed as follows: Students may take a minimum of 7 AR test at Reading Level 5.0 or higher. To receive the corresponding grade (100%), students must score NO LOWER than 60% on each test. Once students take a minimum of 7 AR test, they will receive an extra 100% TEST GRADE.
In total for meeting the incentive in FULL, students will receive SEVEN 100 daily grades + ONE 100 test grade.
Students that take 1-6 AR test at a Reading Level of 5.0 or higher and score NO LOWER than 60% on each test will still receive the daily grades but not the test grade for completing the incentive. The daily grades will NOT apply to the Creative Writing class; however, the test grade will be applied as an extra credit grade.
