Colorado or Bust!

Please refer to the rubric as you complete your assignments, as this will be the basis for your letter grade.

Each of the six assignments is worth 5 points for a total of 30 points. The points correspond to the following grades:

27 - 30  A

24 - 26  B

21 - 23  C

18 - 20 D

19 - 0   F

In addition, you will choose one assignment to include in your social studies portfolio. It is suggested that you select your best work, as your portfolio is considered a showcase portfolio, and you want to always include the work that demonstrates your best efforts.

You also have the option of revising one of the assignments before your final grade is issued.

Finally, an extension assignment for extra credit can be completed, but you cannot get a higher grade than 100% for the entire unit. Be prepared to present your idea for an extension assignment to your teacher for approval.
