Grading Scale Mr. González Science Dear Parent(s) or Guardian(s),        Following is the grading scale that I will use for this year: A+ 100% Excellent! Puts forth great effort as well as exceeding requirements. A 94% A- 90% B+ 87% Good job! Puts forth good effort as well as meeting requirements. B 84% B- 80% C+ 77% Not bad! Puts forth some effort and met some requirements. C 74% C- 70% D+ 67% Needs improvement. Needs to put forth more effort. Did not meet requirements. D 64% D- 60% F 59% or lower. Not trying to pass or purposefully trying to fail. We need to meet.        Tests, labs, quizzes, and projects will receive a point score and a letter grade. The daily starters, classwork, and homework will also count into the overall grade. Tests are worth more than homework or classwork, but projects are the most important and worth the most. Missing assignments that are done after the fact or copied, will receive a lower grade, while assignments that are missing completely will receive a zero. Following is an example of how much each assignment is worth more or less (I grade by points so the following is an estimate): Daily starters and Planner 5% Homework 10% Classwork 15% Tests & labs 25% Projects 45%   Al González
