If #grades aren’t meant to punish, then students shouldn’t receive grade deductions for late work or plagiarism (other non-grade consequences and/or teaching need to be used, such as #restorative practices) More on this topic in my blog post: joshkunnath.com/2022/07/06/gra…

@rsykez @DillardMagnetES @jqjoyner1 @nerissagee1 @keproctor @MrsAGriffin1 @guillenDillard @MsDHedge @Alleh2712 @slgoldenperry Have a fantastic year!

Started our day reflecting on our beliefs, discussing and planning for school improvement, unpacking standards based grading and ended planning BIG for our magnet theme. The @DillardMagnetES staff is 🔥🔥

I was given this book in 1996. I was a few years into my career. Today’s devotion was on making learning relevant for my students. My goal is to do this each and every day. Happy Wednesday! (Yes, that is a large cup of coffee!)
