Chapter 13 Reflection

This chapter explains different format styles for your grade book in a differentiated classroom. The following formats were introduced and discussed; grouping assignments by standards, objective, or benchmark, grouping assignments by weight or category, listing assignments by date, and having a topics based grade book.

We would most likely use the listing assignments by date approach for our grade books. That seems like the most organized and helpful way to find grades. We also might consider using the grouping assignments by weight method. This way it might be easier to calculate grades because assignments would already be in groups. Now that many grades can be entered in the computer in online grade books it will make our lives even easier and more efficient.Even though they have grade books on the computer we think it's still a good idea to have an up dated hard copy on hand
