Grading Procedure for Spanish Class with Señora Martín

Each student will be evaluated on a regular, if not daily, basis in the areas of listening, speaking, reading and writing.  I will use a wide range of evaluating techniques to insure all students have the greatest opportunity for success. 

The following approximate rubric will be used:

                                 Tests and Projects           25%

                                 Quizzes                             25%

Conversations                 20%

Homework/Classwork    15%

Class Participation         15%

1.  Tests and Projects:  Approximately 1 per month at the end of each chapter or unit of study.  (Usually out of 100 points)

2.  Quizzes:  Every 1-2 weeks to check for comprehension of individual topics such as grammar and vocabulary.  (20-40 points)

3.  Conversations:  Approximately 2 per month to assess communication and speaking skills.  (25-35 points)

4.  Homework/Classwork:  4-5 assignments per week worth 5 points each.  **Late assignments will receive half credit, or assignments may be made up with teacher for full credit.**

5.  Class Participation:  Daily monitoring of speaking and listening skills in Spanish.  This is some of the most important practice you will get.  See attached explanation!
