We follow best practices in designing class time, assignments, and routines. According to Pennington Publishing, effective writing feedback (or grading) is: • Specific, not general • Immediate, not postponed • Routine with a revision / feedback cycle • Explanatory • The right amount • Targeted to the most critical issues • Varied (written, audio, and video comments) • Holding students accountable 👩🏫 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀: To see teacher introduction videos, go to the Lemons-Aid profile page where you can view the video and also read bios. https://outschool.com/teachers/Karen-Lemons?usid=0BAnv5zn&signup=true&authTrigger=follow_teacher&follow=true&utm_campaign=share_leader_link
