Grading • 75% of the grade is made of assessments • Tests, Quizzes, Check Ups, Chapter Tests, Unit Tests, Projects • 25% of the grade is made up of daily work and homework
What Can be Retaken? • Tests provided it is not near the end of a grading period • Students must demonstrate effort towards improvement- extra work assigned by me along with correcting errors on test on notebook paper (don’t change answers on the test)
Quizzes • Quiz scores can be increased through corrections of errors on notebook paper or explanations of what was done incorrectly (depends on question type) Do not change your original answer – do work on notebook paper
Textbook Information • The textbook is designed for students to write in it! • The textbook has built in notes, vocabulary, and practice problems. • The textbook has an answer key and essential math formulas in the back.
Your Virtual Classroom • This book has an interactive online component. • The online portion has videos, examples, and more practice problems. • Some assignments will be submitted online.
How to log into the virtual classroom • Initially you need to load yourself into my class.

Passwords are DIFFERENT: skyward login upper case. • Ex: Login: ververk000 Password: VERVERK000 **Sometimes this process may not work- just let me know**
