Bulletin Board

Welcome to Math 2018-2019

Materials

• pencils
• red pens
• green pocket folder (for homework)
• green spiral bound folder (for notes)
• paper for work
• Calculator (simple calculator for 6th and 7th grade, scientific for 8th grade)

All students are responsible to have materials in class.

Grading

• 50% average of homework, quizzes, in class work, etc. of the grade period

deductions will be taken as follows:

20% deduction off grade for insufficient work

20% deduction off grade for late work that is turned in immediately after class. Other late work will typically

not be accepted, but if accepted will have a 20% dock.

5% for no name or page number on homework/quizzes/tests

Incomplete grades will reflect the percentage done if it is a completion grade. If the assignment is graded

then those problems not done will be wrong.

• 50% average of all tests for the grade period

NOTICE: A student will have the opportunity to retake all tests. The highest grade will be recorded as their grade.

This opportunity is given so students can learn from their mistakes, so I expect them to study for tests. It is the responsibility of the student to talk to me about retaking any test. Typically I will mention the retake and a date will be given, if I fail to do this it is the student's responsibility to talk to me about a retake. Retake tests will be given during one of the student's study hall, class time, or after school (I will determine when the retake will be given).
