MY EXPECTATIONS OF THE STUDENTS:
Be respectful
Be here on time
Be prepared
Homework done and out, ready to be checked
Maximum effort
NO TEXTBOOK:
We do not have a textbook.
 Packets distributed by unit
Kept in a 2” binder
Students will be assigned homework out of the packets
daily.
HOW ARE THE STUDENTS ASSESSED?
Daily homework –
This is checked daily and 1 point is deducted from their final marking period
average for every homework assignment not done.
Quizzes – 12-15 per marking period counting as 40% of their grade.
Unit Tests – taken at the end of each unit counting as 60% of their grade.
Their overall marking period grade is just the sum of the two percentages.
Regents exam at the end of the year counts as 20% of their overall average for the
year.
