Grading / Report Cards

Portal Grade Book

Portal is OPEN: • Grades checked

• Missing, late, excused

• Grades: numeric grade with scale rubric letters

Report Cards: • Standards-based for each subject area; aligned to

curriculum (common assessments created around

standards/curriculum)

• Students are evaluated on their performance

Common Core Standards

• Compute fluently with multi-digit numbers and find common factors and multiples.

• 6.NS.2. Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm.

• 6.NS.3. Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation.

• 6.NS.4. Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2). Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers.

PBS

• Positive Behavior Support (PBS) is designed to assist us

in our efforts to teach, encourage and recognize

Behavior Support) Log to record the behavior and will fill out a “Think Sheet” or log ticket which

must be signed by parent/guardian.
