My first attempt at making grades more meaningful

I'm trying this "revision policy" in my class with my 6th graders' blogged essays. Admittedly, my feedback has been not at all timely, so I put that last bullet point in there to keep myself accountable.

Please leave thoughts you have here and not on my classroom blog. I'm open to any and all ideas, I'd just rather the conversation take place over here.

And while you're over there, please leave my students a comment on their blog posts!
