Questions teachers ask

Which U.S. report card does this follow?

None in particular: U.S. districts design their own report cards. This mode offers ELA, math and work habits comments, which many standards-based cards report, on scales that differ by district.

Are these Grade 7 work habits comments tied to the curriculum?

No. They are written for Kindergarten-Grade 8 or Grades 6-8 and are not pinned to a single expectation, so check each sentence against what you actually taught before you use it.

Where do student names go?

Nowhere. Names, ratings and comments are kept in this browser's storage on your computer and are never sent to Milestone Teachers or anyone else. One button clears them.
