Math Procedures
Class Period:
–lecture new lesson–students will not be allowed to do past math during this time
–assign work
–go over any struggles from yesterday’s homework
–students work on today’s lesson
Homework
Answers must be highlighted/circledWork must be neat or redoWork must be shown or redoName and lesson number top of each pageAll work done vertically (down the page) and in two columnsNotebooks
–Students will write down the lesson objective and lesson #
–will take notes with examples
–will do practice problems from textbook and lecture
–Notebooks will be graded as 2 homework assignments on the day of the test
Tests
–take test
–I will grade it by end of day by just marking items wrong
–you will be able to see test grade in Powerschool at end of day
–Correct the test (you have until the next test) and must be done during your lunch periods or work time in class only
–Both tests will be entered into Powerschool and averaged together for a final test grade.
Math Policy
1. Students may earn credit for redos (one redo per lesson)
a. Will only be given credit if completed within two days of the original assignment
b. Redos are to be turned in with the cover sheet on top, next the redo problems (work shown), and then the original lesson, all stapled together.
2. A grade of 90% or less on daily work requires a redo
–This is an error of 3 or more on a 30-problem assignment, or 2 or more on a 25-problem assignment.
–Redos on tests are required until all answers are corrected
3. Students are to take responsibility for the redo requirement. The exception is if the student needs additional instruction or solicits help on specific problem types. Breaks and math study halls are available for this. Again, the student must take responsibility. Turning in a paper with “help” on it does not constitute taking responsibility.
4. As students progress in math, the process becomes more and more important. If students are not showing work appropriately, problems may be marked incorrect until this is remedied by redoing work. If the incorrect process is consistent, further action will be taken.
5. Late Work: according to the Parent Handbook, work may not be over two days late, except for illness or prearranged absence.
Students receive 80% credit for work one day late. 50% for two days late and no credit after the second day.
6. If a student is not keeping up with daily or redo work, he/she may be kept in at breaks and math study hall to work on them. Also, parents will be contacted so we can find a solution.
7. Expect a math assignment daily, except for test days. Look at the course lesson plan for assignments and other info.
8. Tests…I will grade tests by end of day on test day. It is the students’ responsibility to pick up their graded test to correct any mistakes and resubmit for grading before the next test. Correcting the test MUST be done in my classroom during lunch (can take multiple days) or other class work times. Both the first and redo test grade will be entered into PowerSchool so the final test grade will be an average of both tests.
–Redos on tests are required until all answers are correct.
How tests are graded:
Correct with work shown first try---5 points each
Correct with work shown second try---3 points each
Incorrect---0 points each
Lesson 3 due
Lesson 4; Distributive property, Solutions of equations, Change sides---change signs
Lesson 5; Word Problems, Fractional parts of a number
