Goals For the student: Ask questions, seek solutions.
For the teacher: To foster math thinkers, not just doers; to make math active, relevant and worthwhile.

Office Hours
Math teachers are available Tuesday and Wednesday morning from 8:15 to 9:00 AM. It is helpful to send an email in advance, so that teachers are sure to be in their room during that time. Other appointment times can be arranged if needed.

Grading Summative Work (Tests, Quizzes and
Projects 70% of the grade) If a student scores an NYM on a test, they have
two options: 1. Correct the test for a 70% or 2. Correct and complete a retake for full credit.
Before retaking an assessment, students must complete a corrections sheet and present it to the teacher to receive the retake.
If a student scores below a 90% they have the option of making corrections and retaking the test for full credit.

Grading Problems of the Week (10% of the grade) While completing these students work on their
larger problem solving skills. We complete 3 a month. The 4th week of the
month students choose one of the earlier problems to revise based on initial feedback and turn back in.
If not completed on time, students lose an “on time” check-off, and the assignment still needs to be completed.

Grading Weekly Review (15% of the grade) Handed out on Monday and due on Friday,
they cover concepts from previous weeks. Quiz on Friday covers material on the
weekly review. Students can use the weekly review as a
note sheet for the quiz. No correction on the quiz – meant to give
us a “snapshot” on student’s skills.

Grading Homework/Classwork (5% of the
grade) Students receive feedback on a 1-5 scale
based on quality of work and completion of responses. This gets recorded in the grade book along with a check for “on-time” completion.
Late work still needs to be turned in, but students do not get the “on-time” check
