05/10/24 – 5th Grade Test Correction Form Due – Students received their Topic 11 tests back along with a test correction form. Students can earn half the points lost for each incorrect question provided they complete the test correction form accurately and thoroughly. Parents have to sign the test and the test correction form.Five of the 8 questions on the test were directly from the homework. I try to make sure every student can earn at least a C. The test was graded on the following criteria:
8 questions correct = A = 100%
7 questions correct = B = 89%
5 – 6 questions correct = C = 79%
3 – 4 questions correct = D = 69%
0 – 2 questions correct = F = 59%
