Grading

All students begin class with a 4. They can lose points when they choose to not follow the class expectations. At the end of the class period, students will be asked to hold up the number of fingers that they feel they earned according to their participation and behavior. If there is a conflict with what I have, we will discuss and make sure to understand their grade for the day. That will be the grade they receive for that class period.
