Hello Geraldine! Whenever I teach any of the books, I usually divide the grade points into class participation, tests, and writing assignments. If you only have one student taking the course, class participation means that all homework assignments have been completed and that the student is able to discuss the works they are reading. Each book has answers in the back to aid the teacher in those discussions. Each lesson will have the student reading and critically analyzing the literature. This is through assignments that can be either written or discussed in class. I like to mix it up and have the students do some of both. We offer two resources to help with grading. The first is a class notes and test booklet for World, American, and British literature. The notes help the student to study for the tests. There are tests for each unit of the course, and an answer key is provided for you. This is optional. You can make up your own tests. The second service is a writing assessment for the major writing assignments for each course. Your student will send his or her essays to be evaluated. Someone will work with them providing instruction and guidance to help improve their writing skills. We don't provide a grade, but this will help you in assigning one. This is also optional. Please let me know if you have any other questions!
is there a resource to learn how to grade this curriculum for the H.S. transcript? Thanks!
