Finally, students are also responsible for showing completed make-up work to the teacher so it can be graded accordingly. • Homework Grading Sheet • 5 All problems completed correctly • 4.5 All problems completed; most work done correctly • 4 Most problems attempted, some given wrong answers or incomplete • 3 Only half done, most work wrong or incomplete • 1-2 Incomplete and incorrect • 0 No work
