Due Monday April 13, 2009
We have recently revisited the ongoing theme of alternative assessment in the math classroom and continue to promote this philosophy by working on two lessons, one of which is due Monday and the other which will be collected on a previously unannounced day.
Rubrics have been provided for both tasks and we have spent considerable time discussing questions and concerns, but more importantly the importance of such lessons. Traditional paper and pencil tests are not the sole measure of a student's competency in a subject therefore alternative methods need to be made available. This is the thinking behind the math field guide for chapter 8 and the ongoing class notes.
Your Math Field Guide and your Class Notes each count as a 100 point test grade. Invest in them wisely!
