This is the tentative Grading Policy:
Your final quarter grade is comprised of a term grade = 85% and a final assessment grade = 15%. You will receive a zero and an administrative referral if you COPY/Plagiarize other students' assignments/Assessments. Notebooks are Notes, so they are except this policy, yet are also graded. You need to “Row your own boat.” Do your own work, so YOU can truly be Successful and Learn. Your term grade is broken up into three categories, as seen below, with the respective weight percentages.
Participation and Notes - 20%
The student participates in class discussions and is active in daily lessons, activities, and practice. Since we do not assign homework, participation in class is very important in a math class! The student comes prepared to class with all necessary materials and keeps a positive attitude throughout the class period. The student will maintain an organized notebook with up-to-date notes, warm-ups, and examples.
Practice Assignments - 30%
All assignments will be due the same day given; however, students will have the opportunity to complete and turn in any work given before that unit’s Quiz Day. The grade will either be a completion or an accuracy grade. Late homework will NOT be accepted after the associated quiz is given.
Quizzes, Tests, & Projects - 35%
Tests will be given at the beginning of each quarter and then again at the end of each quarter to show student growth. Quizzes will be given at most once a week and may or may not be announced ahead of time. Quizzes are open notes.
