Formative Assessment Evaluation

Here’s a list of assignments and activities we did the first few weeks.  Check off which ones you completed and give me an indication of what grade you think you earned for those assignments by placing a number between 1 and 10, 10 being the highest (100%).  You should consider how much thought you put into the assignment and the quality of your answers.  Place this on the top of your assignments that you staple together and turn in to me along with your non-academic evaluation.  Place a star by any assignment you want feedback on.
