Class Rules

Homework

  • Homework will be given almost every day

  • You will be required/expected to have it done every day

  • Grading – Congratulations! EACH WEEK, you start off with a grade of 100 for your homework!

        • Each homework will be worth a maximum of 10 points and is based on EFFORT NOT RIGHT/WRONG!!

                  • 10 points – fully completed, all work shown and neatly written

                  • 7 points – almost fully completed, most of the work shown

                  • 5 points – Only half completed, no work shown, sloppily written

                  • 3 points – You got a few questions done but that's it

                  • 0 points – We all know how to achieve this one : )

If you miss homework or only get half credit, your grade drops that many points.

(example: on Monday you have a 100, you miss that night’s homework, you now have a 90 for the week).

This will continue all week long until Friday.

Make-up work is accepted only when student has an excused absence
