They are assigned every day (with few exceptions), and they are due at the beginning of the following class period. Students must show work to receive full credit. One class day late will be accepted for half credit. Homework grades are determined as follows: o All problems attempted with work shown: 5 points o Half or more problems attempted with work shown: 3 points o Less than half of problems attempted or no work shown: 0 point Group Work Students will be working in groups many times in this class. The teacher will assign students to their groups. Students are expected to contribute, cooperate, be on task, and communicate within their groups. Quizzes and Tests Quizzes will be given throughout the unit. Occasionally, there will also be unannounced pop quizzes. Tests will always be announced, and they will be given at the end of each unit. Tests cannot be retaken. Therefore, it is very important that students prepare for each test before they are given. Test grades will count twice as much as quizzes. Absences When there is an excused absence, it is the student’s responsibility to make up his/her assignment(s). Make up homework, quizzes, and tests should be completed and turned in within 2 school days from the date of the absence.
