Effort!
One of our school improvement goals is to improve effort. All year, we used these effort rubrics anytime students took a test. It has made a big difference!!!! Many teachers write the grade on the rubric, and parents have to sign it. It has helped with students taking more time, and double checking answers. Click to Download Effort Rubric
Good luck with all that studying! I don't envy you. But do enjoy the spring weather. Maybe some studying outdoors is in order. :)
