Grading Policies
ASSESSMENTS
Each semester, students will be given three different types of assessments: performance tasks, quizzes, and unit tests . Performance tasks are project based tasks that may be assigned individually or in groups. Quizzes will be given to assess student progress. A final test for each unit will also be given. Assessments make up 80% of the students' overall grade.
CLASSWORK/HOMEWORK
Classwork and homework make up a total of 20% of students' overall grade. Classwork that is assigned may or may not be collected for a grade. Homework is assigned Monday through Thursday with the exception of test days. Students' homework grades are based on effort and work shown for each problem assigned. Homework will be reviewed daily. Full credit is given for completion of homework with work shown for each problem. It is very important for students to be completing homework consistently. Because time will be given in class to review and make corrections, it is essential that students come prepared with completed homework. Students will NOT be given credit for late homework unless it is due to an EXCUSED absence.
