COMMENTS: S1 intro 1 1=Consistently committed to #h learning, 2=Making constructive contributions to group discussions, 3=Demonstrating perseverance in improving #h skills, 4=Usually engaging productively during classwork, 5=Despite an inconsistent performance, 6=Despite finding it challenging, COMMENTS: S1 intro 2 1=#N had a very strong first semester in Grade 6 Mathematics. 2=#N did very well in the first semester of Grade 6 Mathematics. 3=#N put forth solid and consistent effort during the first semester of Grade 6 Mathematics. 4=#N demonstrated the qualities of a competent mathematician during the first semester of Grade 6 Mathematics. 5=#N grew as a mathematician during the first semester of Grade 6 Mathematics. 6=#N should be proud of #h effort and persistence during the first semester of Grade 6 Mathematics. 7=#N did well in the first semester of Grade 6 Mathematics. COMMENTS: S1 intro 3 1=#E has strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills. 2=#E has good critical thinking skills and mastered some difficult problems. 3=#E has a natural inclination towards math and strong critical thinking skills. 4=#E readily grasped new concepts and ideas. 5=#E is able to think through problems logically. 6=#H determination to understand things and not give up until #e fully grasps a concept should be commended. 7=#H willingness to ask questions when #e does not understand something should be commended. COMMENTS: S1 middle 1 1=This quarter, #N consistently turned in thorough and thoughtful assignments on or before due dates. 2=This quarter, #N did a nice job turning in #h assignments complete and on time. 3=This quarter, #N turned in most assignments complete and on time. 4=This quarter, #N had difficulty meeting deadlines and thoroughly completing assignments. COMMENTS: S1 middle 2 1=#Consequence performed consistently well on assessments and was comfortable with both review and new material. 2=#Consequence was generally comfortable with both review and new material. 3=#Consequence demonstrated an inconsistent understanding of new topics. While #Q2topics was a topic with which #e was mostly comfortable, #Q2topics is an area where #e #andbut need supplemental review outside of class. 4=#Consequence demonstrated an inconsistent understanding of both new and review topics. While #Q2topics was a topic with which #e was mostly comfortable, #Q2topics is an area where #e will need supplemental review outside of class. 5=#Consequence demonstrated an inconsistent understanding of new topics. 6=#Consequence demonstrated an inconsistent understanding of both new and review topics. COMMENTS: S1 middle 3 1=#N should take advantage of the optional math challenge work available. 2=#N may benefit from exploring the optional math challenge work available. 3=#N should be sure to ask questions whenever a topic is unclear or when #e needs individual support. 4=#N should spend time outside of class practicing new topics and meet with me during study hall at least once during each unit. 5=#N should regularly spend time practicing new topics and meet with me at least once a week during study hall. 6=#N should continue to ask questions whenever a topic is unclear or when #e needs individual support. 7=#N should continue to speak up when #e needs individual support. 8=#E would also benefit from continuing to reinforce basic math facts with all operations; shoring up these fundamentals will enable #h to focus more mental energy on the complex topics being introduced this year. 9=#E would also benefit from refreshing #h multiplication facts; shoring these up will enable #h to focus fully on the topics being introduced this year. COMMENTS: S1 projects 1 1=On the first Problem of the Month set, #N did very well; #e exhibited strong problem-solving abilities and articulated #h process clearly in writing. 2=On the first Problem of the Month set, #N did well; #e exhibited appropriate problem-solving abilities and articulated #h process fairly well in writing. 3=On the first Problem of the Month set, #e exhibited developing problem-solving abilities and was somewhat able to articulate #h process clearly in writing. #N should practice explaining #h mathematical thinking aloud whenever #e has the chance. 4=On the first Problem of the Month set, #N was inconsistent with #h quality of work; #e exhibited developing problem-solving abilities and was somewhat able to articulate #h process clearly in writing. #N should practice explaining #h mathematical thinking aloud whenever #e has the chance. COMMENTS: S1 projects 2 1=For #h Scale Model Project, #N measured, scaled, and constructed #size ***insert project type here***. This #ProjAdj #andbut #ProjAdj; COMMENTS: S1 projects 3 1=it showcased a solid understanding of the topic of ratios and scaling measurements. 2=it showcased a fundamental understanding of the topic of ratios and scaling measurements. 3=unfortunately, it did not showcase a consistent understanding of the topic of ratios and scaling measurements. COMMENTS: S1 projects 4 1=Overall, #e seemed to enjoy exploring mathematical concepts in these additional ways. 2=In general, #e seemed up to the task of exploring mathematical concepts in these additional ways. 3=#E seemed less enthusiastic about exploring mathematical concepts in these additional ways. COMMENTS: S1 z closing 1 1=#N demonstrates a clear enjoyment of and enthusiasm for math. #E participates consistently and is engaged in class. 2=#N generally has a positive attitude in math. When #e participates in class, #e demonstrates strong mathematical thinking. 3=#N generally has a positive attitude in math. When #e participates in class, #e demonstrates appropriately developing mathematical thinking. 4=#N generally has a positive attitude in math. When #e participates in class, #e demonstrates steady growth in #h mathematical thinking. COMMENTS: S1 z closing 2 1=#H proactive nature in math class will take #N far. 2=#E should be proud of #h resilience and growth in math this semester. 3=Given #h performance this semester, #N will likely continue to do well in math throughout the remainder of the year. 4=Consistent effort and follow-through will help #N find continued success in math. 5=With continued effort and persistence, #N will likely be able to tackle future challenges and reach the end of this year a solid mathematician.
