Third grade will be using a Total Point System for our grades.

 

Every assignment, test, quiz, or project will be assigned a certain number of points (the bottom number).The number of points earned by the student will be the top number. The lower the total point value of the assessment/assignment, the less "weight" that assessment/assignment carries.  For example: a reading test may be graded out of 100 points, but a quiz, project, or spelling test may be graded out of 40, 50, or 60 total points (and anything in between).

At the end of the trimester, all of the possible points will be added up, as well as all of the points earned by your child. Genesis will calculate your child's average based on the weighted grades. 

 

Please continue to check Genesis (Parent Portal) for your child's progress.
