Tests and Quizzes All tests and quizzes are graded equally • Students will be given at least three days notice of a test • Students will be given at least two days notice of a quiz • Quizzes will be a smaller version of the test • MAD Minutes will be given weekly/biweekly – Timed Drills for basic multiplication/division facts (will be graded) • Please check grades on Real Time often • Generally tests/quizzes given back on Mondays to be signed and returned by Wednesday

  8. Homework Plan Homework Alerts will be given for ANY missed homework • Each student will start each subject with a 100% homework grade • Each alert will result in five points being deducted from their homework grade (in the subject area the homework was missed) • Homework alerts are filled out and sent home for a parent/guardian to sign  • The missed assignment needs to be completed and handed in with the signed homework alert the next school day • A homework pass may not be used for a graded or longterm homework assignment

  9. Strategies for Higher Test Scores • Star Renaissance testing (Fall, Winter and Spring) •  MAD Minute Math testing once per month – charting student progress • Writing Portfolios – individual writing samples administered once per month • Weekly “Do Nows” using NJASK samples to prepare students throughout whole year
