Grading Breakdown 60% Tests & Quizzes 30% Homework 10% Participation & Preparation Retest Policy: A student scoring below 60% on a test or quiz may schedule extra help during Enrichment or before or after school and retake the test for a maximum score of 60%.

Homework Policy Random homework assignments count for points. Each homework that counts is worth 2 points. Work must be shown to receive credit. Half credit is possible on incomplete assignments if work is shown and at least half of the assignment is complete.

Homework Pass Each student received a homework pass already. Students can sign it, date it, and indicate the assignment to receive full credit. It may be used as 5 points bonus on a test at the end of the 9-weeks IF there are no zeroes in the homework column. If it is not used during the first 9-weeks, it may carry over to another 9-weeks.

assignments Assignments are written on the Assignment Board near the door daily. It is the responsibility of the students to be aware of assignments. Students should check the Assignment Board to see what material was covered while absent, complete the assignment, AND TURN IT IN! Any copied papers that were assigned will be in the make-up crate by the door, sticking up, with the student name and date marked. Make-up tests will not be there. Students needing to complete a test MUST ask for the make-up test. Students have the same number of days as were missed to complete make-up work. Assignments given on the last day present will be due on the first day back.

restroom Passes Each student received 3 restroom passes for the 1st 9-weeks already. They are to be used with discretion. Once students are out of passes or lose them, they will not be permitted to leave during class time. Unused restroom passes may be redeemed for rewards at the end of the 9-weeks. Three new restroom passes will be issues at the beginning of each 9-weeks.

www.StudyIsland.com Every Day 6 is Study Island Day… in this room! Each assignment (sometimes 2 in a day) will receive a 3 point test grade. Full credit will be received for 10 questions done with a BLUE ribbon. Any student who doesn’t earn a 3 on Day 6, will be permitted to continue to work on it at home throughout the week to have the grade adjusted by the next Day 6. AFTER THAT WEEK, THE BLUE RIBBON WILL STILL BE REQUIRED BUT THE GRADE WON’T CHANGE!! Students may ask for the topic to be cleared to start from scratch….every day if necessary! Arrangements can be made to use a school computer before or after school for students who do not have internet access at home.

Problem of the Week A new bonus problem is put up every Monday. Students must copy the entire problem and show work in an attempt to receive 1 bonus point. Correct solutions will receive an additional bonus point. Problems must be submitted by Friday to receive any bonus.
