Grading Procedures and Classroom Expectations
Grading Procedures
50%
of the student's grade is based upon tests and notebooks:
-Tests will be
worth 100 points.
-Cumulative tests
will be worth 200 points.
-Notebooks must be kept in a 3-ring binder. Notebooks will contain notes, examples, practice problems, handouts, labs, TOPS reports, etc. Items in the student’s notebook will be given appropriate point values.
*If a student is
absent the day a test is given, the makeup test will be taken immediately upon
return.
*Labs must be made up within one week. Computer labs must be made up before or after school.
30%
of the student's grade is based upon quizzes and projects:
-Quizzes and projects will vary in point value.
*If a student is
absent (excused) the day a quiz is given, the makeup quiz will be taken
immediately upon return.
*Projects must be made up within one week.
20%
of the student's grade is based upon daily work:
-Daily work consists of textbook assignments, worksheets, and Accelerated Math.
-Daily work will be given point a value based upon the number of problems on the assignment.
-All assignments are to be done in pencil.
*Daily work is due
the school day following the day it was assigned, unless stated
otherwise.

*If a student is
absent the day the assignment is due, the assignment must be turned in
immediately upon return to math class.
If a student is
absent for an extended period of time, special arrangements for makeup work
must be made with me.
