FORMATIVE
Formative assignments are generally completed during class and are collected as a portfolio every Friday. (Web Quests on Google Classroom are also formative.) These assignments are designed to help students practice the skills of the standards. Formative Assessments are worth 20% of the student's overall grade. Each week students complete a written reflection, self-assessment, and status update that details their progress. GRADING SCALE:

SUMMATIVE
Summative assessments are mostly completed during class (with some time to finish them at home). These are usually formal writing assignments, tests, and/or presentations, and are designed to assess students' progress on the standards at the end of the unit. Summative Assessments are worth 80% of the student's overall grade. If summative writing assignments are turned in on time, students can revise them for a higher grade. GRADING SCALE:
