Essays and grades

source

I end this work week by reading some fun essays written by the 7th graders! It is not our first essay, so they already know what is expected from them. Having your essays, and other projects, graded is not always necessary - but it can also be a good tool to help you know where in the learning process you are. Especially combined with a comment on what you did good, and what you can perhaps improve...

In order to make it fair (and easier) I have a explicit table to guide me when I am grading. This table does not only take into account language, but also contents - why I think it is very good! Some pupils have a vivid imagination, but perhaps expressing yourself is not always so easy. I use this table for all my classes in the upper level (7th - 9th grade). This is not news, it can be found in all the classroom.

If you want to take a look at it at home, you can now also find it here. No system is perfect, but this is how I do things... In the same document you can also find what is taken into account for the overall grade.

Online-provövning

Här är några länkar till online-grammatikövningar, inför måndagens prov i klass sju.
(Ännu ett bevis på hur kul det är med grammatik - eller i alla fall på att vi kan ha roligt medan vi övar.)

Indefinit artikel (a/an):
Övning 1
Övning 2

Substantiv i pluralis:
Övning 1 (svårare, innehåller flera oregelbundna)
Övning 2 (lättare)

OBS! Notera att det i övningarna kan finnas andra ord än de vi övat på - ni kan i misstag lära er ännu flera ord!

Stor bokstav:
Övning 1
Övning 2

OBS! Det finns flera tillfällen då vi använder stor bokstav i engelska än vad vi lärt oss hittills, så även i denna övning kan ni lära er ännu mera! (I provet testas ni bara på de regler vi gått igenom.)





Vilka två grammatiska fel finns i bilden ovan? Ni kan svaret på båda (och en av felen hör till grammatiken vi behandlar nu ....)!
