Key Points from Syllabus Expect DAILY Homework Late work for reduced points HW on a separate piece of paper (UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED), all work shown properly. There may be writing involved and full sentences are required. HW that earns partial credit for being incomplete or not enough work can be fixed and resubmitted In pencil ONLY STUDENT’S responsibility to makeup work from absences
Retakes There is a retake policy for this course. If you were at Fallon last year, these policies may be different. You will be notified of it in the next few weeks.
Equal signs lined up, each step shown, scratch work on the side
Acceleration Recent Placement test (Did you get a letter?) DPIE and Other Programs TALK TO ME FIRST Appropriate Level Course Taking a course is NOT a guarantee regarding placement There is such thing as TOO FAST Calc AB REQUIRES a student to be in 11th grade or higher Too far too soon = a year without relevant (or any) math!
How to use my website to help your child succeed
Online Textbook Access Each student will receive a user name and password to access the online textbook and tools. (I am waiting to receive these) The website is on the front of their textbook. This gives access to some homework solutions, extra examples, video tutors, extra practice and other very useful tools. An online textbook is also available through the site, but your child will receive a hard copy.
