Okay, cool. Tahri asked me about them and I forgot all about it. Wanted to make sure I didnt miss it in an email or something. Thanks for the update!

Okay, Im going to put them by my door now. If we have book club Thurs, will you be attending? I can bring them then. If not, I will bring them to Nature Club next meeting.

This makes a lot of sense as well. For now, as you mentioned, there is a lot of assistance on my part but I knew I needed a better way of determining mastery. I never considered a rubric before. We are very much electic. For math, there is a grading service. For her ELA. we used a scoring service as well for writing. An of course, we used the grade for Black is Lit to come up with a grade for her 1st English credit. But I have no idea hownIm going to do history or biology and wanted to figure it out now so I can begn putting it into practice for future h.s credits that we dont have grading services.

No, this makes sense. For example, today we discussed meiosis and the differences from mitosis in Biology. For one of her labs, her assignment was to create a flipbook by drawing the different phases of meiosis. With that said, I pretty much can guarantee that she will do this activity but next week when we review, she still wont have mastered it. It was the same for the phases of mitosis and the info that was supposed to be retained at that point. I just dont know how to evaluate it or determine the amount of learning taking place.

Thanks!

This sounds great! Definitely a good way to keep both engaged. We could pair it with the app game for some fun. Thanks for the suggestion!

We will probably start with US and expand to World.
