GRADING POLICYHOMEWORK: Homework is not a major part of a student's grade. Homework is for practice. Students who do not do the homework will not pass their quizzes. Logic problems, Sudoku puzzles and other problem-solving type of work is graded.
LATE WORK: Work that is turned in late will cause a reduction of 25% on the assignment. QUIZZES: Students will have multiple small quizzes throughout the year with a final at the end of each semster. Students are required to pass the quizzes with at least a 75% or better. If students don't receive 75% or better they will conference with the teacher and retake the quiz. Mondays are reserved for retaking quizzes. Students may also come in before or after school to retake quizzes. The quizzes came about so that teachers can assess what concepts students have mastered and what students need to still learn. Students who retake quizzes multiple times usually master the concepts by the end of the year. Students from past years have said that they like that the homework is not the majority of the grade and they are given opportunities to retake the quizzes. Students have felt comfortable with the concepts at the end of the year. |
