Followup question on "Do you give grades?" thread

[LauraL]

For those of you that give grades, what format/forms do you use for recording the daily readings, assignments, weekly quizes, tests, etc.?

I am "organizationally challenged" :ack2: and need some help in this area. Until now (oldest in 9th grade) we have not recorded a score for everything, but I'm thinking it is very important (for her and for me) that we do so now. I've considered making up our own forms, but I'm hoping that there is something out there that I can just start plugging into. Thanks for any advice.

I made my own forms. First I decided how I was going to grade their work. Mostly I give a grade for completion of daily work, quizzes, exams, essays, writing papers, research projects and other projects.

Then I made up tables on the computer where columns were listed as chapters/units and then rows were for the daily assignments, quizzes, exams, etc in that chapter/unit.
