Seventh Grade Language Arts Study Island Assignments

Students should always take a test of 10 or more questions for each test. Students must work to earn the blue ribbon on each test by the end of the year. Grades will be given as follows: Distinguished-100%, Proficient-90%, Apprentice-80%, Novice-60%. Every two to three grades will be averaged as one, so there will be one grade given per week. The tests for each week are always due the next Monday. Students are welcome to work ahead to the next week(s) if they finish early.
