My students like to have options when working on a book project, so I created the 100 points project. It has small to large assignments that students can complete while reading their novel and earn up to 100 points (I offer 120 with extra credit). I grade things as they come in and students know where they sit in order to get the grade they want. Most of the activities are simple variations on other projects that I have used in the past or seen others do, but I have complied them and given them different point values. Recently I had my students pick from the smaller end only as reading log activities while they were reading their independent work. I was able to have simple check in points for converstation starters during reading conferences in my workshop setting. *Part 1 letter D has been fixed to say good instead of goof in the download. THE NEW 100 POINTS 2009 IS THE ONLY ONE THE INCLUDES WORKSHEETS

There are some really cool ideas in this resource! The kids love having a choice of which activity to do and it keeps them really motivated as they're doing an activity that interests them. Love it :)

AWESOME!!! I love the idea that it gives the students choices. It is perfect for the middle grades. It makes them feel like they are being treated fairly. It differentiates in levels and in interests. Everyone can find something that they can do. The ball is in their court to earn their grade.Thank you so much for organizing this.

I gave this to my students as a quarter long project that they are to be completing mostly outside of class. After pointing out the different and creative tasks that the students could do in order to get points (cartoon, commercial) the students seemed really excited that they were able to pick and choose the activities that THEY found interesting. Thanks!

Hi,
I purchased this resource, but it only included projects up to the 40 points. How can I access the rest of the document?

The project only has projects that go up to 40 points. The goal for the students is to do enough work to equal 100 points. So you got the whole thing if you has projects for 5,10, 20, 30 & 40 points. They pick a variety and earn the 100 points as a total. I am sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I have been without a computer and internet for over a week.

I think this is a great idea. Do you ever let students attempt more than 100 points total? I was not thinking of bonus points necessarily, but more like insurance if they didn't earn full points on a particular task.
February 24, 2009  Teachers Pay Teachers


Teachers Pay Teachers
Ms LB   (TpT Seller)
I do allow bonus point work. I divide the bouns points they earn by 5 (it has been awhile but that sounds right) and add it into therei grade. Several students use this at the end of the trimester to boost thiere grades.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Grades Taught:


I am in the middle of my 10th year teaching middle school. I currently teach in a Middle School in Glendale Heights, Illinois. I have worked with students from all ability levels and ethnic backgrounds. For the last 2 years I have been working with 8th graders only teaching English and Social Studies. During my teaching I have worked with many different styles of teaching and had my schedule for teaching change often. Currently I teach 4 hour long classes and 2 half hour classes (one a study hall and one a book club for reading) I also direct the school plays and musicals having put up successful productions of All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten, Krazy Kamp and This is a Test. I also lead the Drama Club in fun Improv games and drama exercises each week. Last school year the students performed a play I wrote for them.
