QUIZZES
*There will be at least one quiz for each chapter.
*Consists of about 5 to 10 questions. *There might also be a couple of review questions as well. *Worth 50 points. *Any student who receives below a C- can raise his/her grade to a C- by correctly redoing the problems (showing all work/writing all explanations) he/she missed on a separate piece of paper. Once graded quizzes have been returned to students, they have 2 school days to improve quiz grade (turn in original quiz with corrected problems on a separate piece of paper) if they wish to do so. If all problems and explanations have been fixed correctly, I will write new grade on quiz. *Any student who receives below a C- (D+, D, D-, or F) is required to get a parentsignature on the quiz. |
TESTS
*Will occur approximately every 3 to 4 weeks. Students will always be given advanced notice about when there will be a test. *Worth 100 points. *Any student who receives below a C- (D+, D, D-, or F) is required to get a parent signature. *Any student who receives below a C- can raise his/her grade to a C- by correctly redoing the problems (showing all work/writing all explanations) he/she missed on a separate piece of paper.

PRACTICE DAYS
Before every test or quiz there will be a Practice Day. On these days students will be working on problems in groups. We will go over these problems in class together the following day. I will then collect these "Practice Day" problems on the day of the quiz or test. These problems will go over the skills, concepts, and strategies use in the lessons leading up the quiz or test. Think of this as like taking a practice quiz or test.
