Assessment, Record Keeping, Reporting

For assessment, Mrs. Cipriani uses the state's 1-2-3 system; a 3 is that the student exceeded her expectation and knew what they were doing in any aspect of the test or the assessment at hand. A 2 would be considered average with some mistakes, but the student got the point and would only need a few minutes to go back over the subject matter and only needs help on 1 or 2 problems. A 1 would be that the student does not understand the material at all and needs to be re-taught it. That is how Mrs. Cipriani grades for most of the worksheets and not as important assessments. But when it comes to tests, she has a system, just like every other teacher, to take the number of questions there are on the test, and then take the number of right answers out of the number of questions, and there is the student's test grade.

For record keeping, my placement teacher has 4 folders for each child (a writing folder, a math folder, a social studies folder and a science folder) and for every assignment, the completed and grades work goes into whatever folder it is supposed to, and at the end of the year, Mrs. Cipriani has something kind of like a showcase for the parents for the students in her class to come in and see what all they did over the course of the school year. I really like this idea and will more than likely have one of these whenever I have my own classroom.
