Grade Chart, Score Distribution & Error Analysis Score Distribution Charts are provided to help you evaluate student progress. By recording information in both columns you will have a record of how the students did on the test and the math problems with which they had the most difficulty. This is a valuable tool for parent / teacher conferences. Parents see how their child is doing relative to the class without you having to reveal the identity of any other class members. The distribution can be used for assigning letter grades, based on teacher standards considering the ability of the class and the difficulty of the test. You should make a copy of the charts for use with each test. www.excelmath.com i.17 ©2007 AnsMar Publishers, Inc.
