GRADING SHEET LIT & COMP 1 / FIRST QUARTER (Student Name) PG 6/6 How to Compute the Final Grade for the First Quarter 1) Add up all the points to the left of the forward slash from the grade column This number represents all points the student earned. (Remember DON T count the points you put an X by. Those scores are NOT to be counted in the First Quarter grade.) 2) Add up all the points to the right of the forward slash from the grade column This number represents all possible points. (Again, DON T count the X-ed points.) 3) Record the two totals / 4) Divide the score by the total possible points, then move the decimal point over two places to the right 5) Record the number in front of the decimal (something between 1 and 100) % This is your First Quarter percent grade. 6) Record the First Quarter letter grade Anything starting with a 9 is an A. Anything starting with a 8 is a B. Anything starting with a 7 is a C, and so forth. If everything is perfect, then the grade is 100. That s an A, too. ~ Congratulations on completing the first quarter! ~
