Grading Policy

7th Grade Math

Grades in this class are weighted. Assessments are 50% of the grade, Practice Work is 25%, and Khan Academy is 25%. I use the following grading scale:

100-90% A

80-89% B

70-79% C

60-69% D

0-59% F

25% Practice Work (Homework /Notes/ Projects)

Assignments are worth 10 points each and turned in through google classroom. The deadline for weekly assignments is the following Monday at 9am, may loose points for being late. Notes and homework are designed to reinforce and expand what the students learned in class. My goal is to help students create organized notes and learn how to show work. Projects will be graded using a rubric designed for each assignment.

50% ASSESSMENTS

There are 2-3 assessments per unit and will comprise of 50% of the students grade. These assessments are designed to measure student mastery of the concepts taught and practiced. The assessments give students the opportunity to show how well they have comprehended the material through various measures of accountability.

25% Khan Academy

To receive credit for the weekly Khan Academy assignments, the assignments must be completed by the following Monday at 9am. Khan academy will be used to support daily lessons and to reinforce unit concepts. The grading requires the students to get to the PRACTICED level to receive full points for that skill (10/10). Anything above the practiced level is still considered full credit for that skill.
