Community Review for FreshGrade Classic
My Take
Using FreshGrade has made me question my assessment practices , I have become much better at understanding formative assessment and it has also allowed me to provide differentiated assessment to better meets the needs of individual students in my class. I use FreshGrade as my communicating student learning document.
How I Use It
I use FreshGrade to make learning visible in my classroom. It helps to build the home-school relationships as well as provide students with direct feedback on their learning. Due to FreshGrade my students are taking ownership of their learning and are more engaged in their learning! Parents love that they are a partner in their child's learning journey!
