__**Tests:**__
====Tests are usually not given in World History, Civics, and Geography (with the exception of semester tests). Instead the students complete large projects on a regular basis either in groups or independently.====

These points are given based on //observation//. Factors considered for points:

 * ====demonstrating knowledge of topic,====
 * ====communicating ideas clearly,====
 * ====demonstrating willingness to listen to other points of view, and====
 * ====contributes positively and without force.====

Daily Work may be a specific assignment such as a worksheet or Open Book test that students complete on their own.
====Daily Work assignments are usually given with time to work on them in class, but there is not always sufficient time to complete them. This may be work that is completed as "homework". (Homework is generally not assigned.)====
