GRADING SYSTEM

• Students’ grades will be calculated according to a point system. 

• To calculate the final average the number of points earned will be divided by the number of points possible and multiplied by 100 to get a percentage.

• There will be a minimum of one quiz grade and one test grade per unit.

• Quizzes are based on recent homework assignments and can be announced and unannounced.

• Tests are cumulative and may cover material from previous chapters.

• Tests will be worth more points than quizzes and will therefore count as a higher percentage of the grade.

• Homework is sometimes graded for accuracy and sometimes checked for completion and will count toward the final grade.

• We go over the homework in depth and all questions are answered daily.  It is advised that you take advantage of that and ASK QUESTIONS! ASK QUESTIONS! ASK QUESTIONS!

• Projects will also be assigned and graded and will be worth various points depending on the depth of the project.

SUPPLIES

You need the following for class EVERYDAY:

• 1½ TO 2 INCH BINDER – with lots of paper in it AND a secure place to put worksheets!! If you lose your homework you will get a zero for it, so be organized. Sometimes notes will be provided and you will need a place to keep them organized.
• GRAPH PAPER – we will construct graphs by hand without calculators.
• PENCILS and ERASERS– you need to be able to erase! Do not do your math work with pens!
• GRAPHING CALCULATORS are required.  You need a TI-84. If you do not have a calculator you are required to check one out from me and you are responsible for monetarily replacing it if lost.
