Number 4: Recitation
 Only recitation that is based on the index card draw lots is recorded.
 If the student was called but he/she was absent, his/her name will be returned to the pile
and he/she will recite twice for the next meeting.
 The rubrics below will be used for scoring:
Score Criteria
1 No answer. The student is called but he/she was not able to answer or say
anything within the allotted time.
2 Needs improvement. The student answered but his/her answer in entirely
incorrect or not related to the question.
3 Satisfactory. The student was asked to read.
4 Good! The student was able to answer the question correctly but his/her
answer lacks an important element/information.
5 Very good! The student was able to answer the question correctly with all the
necessary information needed.
HOMEWORKS/WORKSHEETS
 Pre-discussion worksheets will be uploaded in the CANVAS LEARNING
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM and must be downloaded and printed out in preparation for
the next topic.
 Pre-discussion worksheets must be checked by group leaders on the day of the discussion
of the topic each of them belongs to. A score sheet will be provided.
 Post-discussion worksheet may be answered on the same day the topic is discussed (after
discussion) or serve as a homework depending on the teacher’s discretion.
 Homeworks/Worksheets are not recorded as part of written or performance tasks but they
are basis for additional points in the written works (70% of total points) and performance
tasks (30 % of total points).
 The following remarks should be used in the score sheet:
Remark Meaning Interpretation
C Complete  If the worksheet is already completely accomplished on the day of checking
 If the worksheet is completely accomplished but it was passed on the next
meeting provided the student has an excuse letter duly signed by the parent
with attached valid ID and the letter is signed by Ms. Paisan
 Equivalent: 5 pts.
INC Incomplete  If the worksheet has answers but not complete on the day of checking
 Equivalent: 3 pts if 75-99% done, 2 pts if 50-74% done, 1 pt if less than 50 %
done
NA No  If the worksheet has no answer whatsoever on the day of checking
