Black History Project

Mrs. Sawyer's class is coming to a close on our black history project. The students final draft is to be typed double spaced and is due on Wednesday, March 3, 2010.

I will be grading all of the student's work they have been doing in class.

The first grade will be for the articles. If I had to print an article for a student because they did not bring them on the correct day they will be graded accordingly.

Brought all 3 articles: 100
Brought 2 articles: 90
Brought 1 article: 80
Brought 0 articles: 0

Next the student will be graded on their notes. I went through with each child and helped them complete this part. As long as it is completely filled out they will make a 100.

The third grade will be for their outline they completed in class with Mrs. Henley. If a section is left blank they will lose points.

The fourth grade is for their rough draft. They completed four of the five paragraphs in class with Mrs. Henley. So I will grade accordingly.

Has 4 paragraphs: 100
Has 3 paragraphs: 90
Has 2 paragraphs: 80
Has 1 paragraph: 70
Has 0 paragraphs: 50

The last grade will be their final draft. Their paper must be typed and must be double spaced. It needs to have their name and a title on their paper. Please make sure to do spell check before you print your paper.

Next Thursday, March 11th will be the day for presentations. Remember you have a lot of options so please feel free to email me and ask any questions you may have. I look forward to seeing everyone's final product.
