We’re back! Welcome to our first episode of the 2021-2022 school year. AND… we’re so excited to be joined by a new member of our team this year, Rebecca MacRae.

We’re trying out a different format for the podcast this year so we’d love your feedback. We are embracing the mentality of “Try-Fail-Learn” as we podcast and publish our raw, unedited conversations. It’s been a busy start to the year so we are “going for done, not perfect”!

This week, we are discussing the idea of ungrading and getting started with the single point rubric. Ungrading is about “raising a critical eyebrow” at our current systems and practices around grading. We’re hosting the amazing Jesse Stommel on Thursday November 4th at 7pm to start the ungrading conversation in our board. We also talk about what a single point rubric is, why you might use one in your classroom, and how to get started.
