Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Engaging Learners team has experience reviewing and revising existing K-12 proficiency scales, evaluating content alignment, and even creating customized proficiency scales for school districts that are "starting from scratch." The sample 3rd grade proficiency scales that are included in this book can easily be adapted to align with any state or school district's academic standards. If traditional grading is not an accurate measure of learning and can damage the social-emotional well being of students, there's not much of an argument for continuing the practice. But what can replace it? Consider Skills/Standards Based Grading, which features a healthy dose of descriptive feedback in place of single A-F letter grades.
