In episode four, we start to scratch the surface of the beast that is grading. You will hear the second half of my conversation with Kelli Yager, Triscia Hochstatter, and Chris Kalmbach. MLSD has been on a journey for a few years to transition to standards based grading at the elementary level, and Kelli and Chris have been instrumental in that shift/support. As we move into the 2020 school year, rethinking grading is a top priority because of the uncertainty, but also to level the playing field for all learners. These three had a lot of great insight!

These first four episodes are best consumed in conjunction with Modules 1-4 of the Flexible Learning Bootcamp being delivered to MLSD in the Fall of 2020. Each episode has a companion blog, which can be found at guerrillapd.blogspot.com.
