3 Charts Informal assessments: You can get a form in class. These forms are to help you stay focused during class and assess yourself on your progress of the goal for the day. At the end of class, I will ask you if you met the daily goal and rate yourself according to: 5=definitely, 4=mostly, 3=somewhat, 2=not much, 0=not at all. I will initial stating that I discussed your progress with you, but you rate yourself. Cleaning: At the end of class, you will ask another peer to observed that you cleaned your desk/mess and that you helped clean the class somehow; they will write their name in your chart for that day.

4 Extra Credit Go back to the website and click on extra credit options You can ONLY do the extra credit that is listed on the website. You can only earn up to 200 points extra credit If I offer a specific assignment at the very end of the semester, that will not count as the 200 points. Approximately 1 minute of effort = 1 points.
