| Thoughtful Classroom Tool (name and book title/page) | Grading Rubrics |
| Teacher NameGrade/Subjects Taught | Mrs. Jen Hill 2nd grade teacher/Beginning of the year |
| Brief Tool DescriptionWhat is its purpose? Is it for a particular dimension of the Thoughtful Classroom framework? What do the teacher and students do during the strategy that make it valuable? | The rubric that I used is the general diocesean grading rubric for K-2nd grade. I wanted to demonstrate how I would grade my students work so that they would take ownership. We made the attached rubric together and talked about what needs to go into their school work to achieve a 4, 3, 2, or a 1. I used a birthday cake to represent the examples of each grade. then the students had to teach their parents for homework. |
| Example(s) of How to Use the Tool in the ClassroomDoes it lend itself best to a particular subjects? Have you used the strategy successfully with a particular topic? Is there a lesson you can describe that illustrates how to use it? | *See attachment |
| Suggestions for AdaptationsCould it be easily adapted for a higher/lower grade? For a different subject area? For assessment? | I think Grading Rubrics could easily be used at every level. |
