8th Grade U.S. History
Retake opportunity:
I want to make sure your kids' 3rd quarter grades are the best they can be under the circumstances. Of course, no new content has been taught/graded since school has been on pause. But, there's no reason they can't "retake" an old quiz to boost their grades. I've modified a paper test they took in class back in early February to be an online test. Because they read the packet so long ago, I included the articles/images with each question....so it's more of a reading comprehension quiz, not testing their memories of the content over a month ago.
For students that need read aloud accommodations, and a parent is not available, I can call you and read the test aloud. Just let me know through email how I can help.
The system only allows a student to take the quiz online once. So, tell kids to take their time and read it thoroughly. It should take them less than 15 minutes. I asked my daughter to take the quiz ahead of time to see if it worked correctly and she said it was hard to read on the iPhone - so a laptop/ iPad/ larger screen would work best.
I will delete their old quiz grade and insert the new quiz grade as a retake (only if it's better than the old quiz grade- if they do worse, the old grade will stay). I will update PowerSchool as soon as scores come in.
Please let me know how else I can help at such a difficult time. I am seriously missing my South Lake family! Virtual {{{hugs}}} from a safe distance
