In one of the topics posted today, I asked one of the forum members how she does term exams. Her answer was very helpful. Thank you Heather! I thought I’d throw this topic out there for anyone else to offer their comments.
The question is: How do you put together term exams in a CM-style? Also, for the high school level especially, how do you grade the exams?
AnonymousInactiveHere’s a blog post I found here at SCM on exams:

I have not had to grade any exams yet, because I do not keep grades prior to 9th grade. I’ve just said “great job” and called it good. I should mention that I live in Kansas, and I do not have to report anything to the state, so I’ve had it easy in that regard. Now, next year will be a new experience since my daughter will begin high school work. I imagine I will put together some sort of simple rubric for grading. I wish I had it all figured out, but I’m not there yet.

AnonymousInactiveHeather,
I’m trying to get it all figured out too…doing a lot of reading, researching, and planning right now. 🙂 As I am preparing for the 9th grade, I’ve spent a lot of time pondering, considering, researching, reading, and praying about our approach and how to set up the high school years for my daughter. I considered AO, Beautiful Feet curriculum, and others. What I appreciate here at SCM is that there’s so much information on how to transition and develop a CM-style education. There are so many great blog articles and ebooks and such. And this forum is absolutely wonderful!I’m working on figuring out how I want to grade each subject this coming year. I’m thinking of using some rubric style grading also.
Rachel WhiteParticipantHere’s blog post at Harmony Art mom about grading in the upper years I thought was good; plus there are links to using and creating rubrics.
