Reading & Spelling Grading

Please see below for an outline of how ALL classes will be graded in Reading and Spelling. 

Reading
  • 4-5 grades per week in Edline
    • Nightly homework (4/ week)
      • 100 points/ week (25/ day)
        • Each night of homework is 25 points.  This means, if a student were to read 3/4 days, they'd get a 75% in homework for that week.
      • Students can make up missed days reading.  Just have them read an extra 30 minutes one day or on the weekend.  Write me a note indicating when your child read and for how long; I'll restore their grade accordingly.  
    • Book club reading
      • 100 points/ week
        • Students will lose 20 points each time they have not read to their stop page on our meeting days. Students have time to read in class.
    • Book club assignments
      • Students will lose 20 points each time they have not completed their book club assignments by our meeting days. Students have time to complete these assignments in class.
    • Participation (in Readers' Workshop)
    • Read aloud participation
Spelling
  • 2 grades per week in Edline
    • Nightly homework (4/ week)
      • 100 points/ week (25 points/ day)
    • Spelling quiz on Fridays


Reminders:
  • Get Caught Reading:  Remember to email in pictures when you "catch" your child reading!  Hadley.ONeill@hcps.org  
Upcoming Dates:
  • No school for students next week.  Have a very safe and happy Thanksgiving!


Thank you,

Mrs. O'Neill
