Points Earned / Total Points
- Tests (70-100) Tests will always be announced and cover an entire chapter. Usually we will have 2 to 3 tests per marking period. Whether test corrections will be assigned will be determined after each test. Test corrections can be completed for ¼ of the points back. For points, correct work must be shown for each problem as well as an explanation of your mistake in complete sentences.
- Quizzes (25-50 points) Usually 2 to 3 quizzes per chapter varying in point value. These will be announced.
- Homework and classwork assessments: Homework will count for 2 points each, and will be checked at my discression. Homework or classwork may also be collected and graded for points.
- You can earn a half of a point of extra credit towards your homework average by putting problems on the board (up to 2 points per chapter). In order to earn the credit, your solution must be complete and understandable.
- Class participation: I do not always round grades. Rounding will be based on both quantity and quality of your classroom contributions. This also includes keeping a notebook, taking notes, and being a productive member of our environment.
- Math league test can be taken for extra credit. As of this year it can only be taken after school
