Summary:After careful research and years of experiences with grading as a teacher and parent, Cathy Vatterott examines and debunks traditional practices and policies of grading in K-12 schools. She offers a new paradigm for standards-based grading that focuses on student mastery of content and gives concrete examples from elementary, middle, and high schools. Rethinking grading will show all educators at all levels how standards-based grading can authentcally reflect student progress and learning - and significantly improve both teaching and learning.- Back cover.
