This chapter focused on grading in a differentiated classroom and ways of ensuring fair assessment. A major focus of this chapter is upon breaking away from a single grade to represent a student’s achievement. While this may seem easier for the teacher, this does not determine student growth. Instead, assessment must occur at all times throughout the course of the semester, with grading occurring after students have worked through a lesson. While it is necessary to provide a final grade, I would like to include an attachment explaining student progress as well as a folder showing work along the way.
