TEACHING EXPERIENCE:

 

 

CLASSROOM POLICIES AND GOALS

Class Procedure:

At the beginning of each class, you will be given an opportunity to ask   

questions about the homework. You may be asked to put problems on the board. After questions, new material will be presented. It is the student’s responsibility to copy these notes & examples and use them for reference when doing homework.

 

If a class is missed, it is the student’s responsibility to get any missed notes &

assignments.

 

Homework should be expected daily and be neatly labeled with name and assignment information (page # and problems) at the top of regular sized notebook paper, ready to be handed in at any time. Work must be shown to receive credit for the problems.

 

A notebook, exclusively for math, is to be kept with a section for class notes (dated with section number), homework (dated with section number), and quizzes & miscellaneous papers.  Notebooks may be checked for a grade (usually at test time).

 

Tests will be given at the end of each chapter or related material. Quizzes may be given at any time, announced or unannounced. Homework may be collected at any time. Classroom participation is expected of everyone. No backpacks are permitted in our room.

 

Grades are based on Accumulated Points/ Possible Total Points and follow the school grading scale.

 

You are expected to:

•      Be prepared for class with assignments and necessary materials

•      Follow directions the first time they are giveN

•      Show respect for others and their property
