  1. Classroom Routines andGrading Policies Ms. Terry 7th Grade Mathematics (Pre-Algebra) Room 509 Walter Stiern Middle School Bakersfield City School District

  2. Class Routine • Questions? • Correct Homework • Warm-Up • Lesson Presentation • Guided Practice • Homework: We will work through at least 1 problem from each section of the homework in class as an example of how to work each type of problem.

  3. Ms. Terry’s Grading Formula: • 50% Tests • 25% Class Work • 25% Homework • 0% INFORMATIONAL ONLY (6th grade CST score for comparison)

  4. 50% Tests • Students complete a practice test with the teacher before each chapter test. • Students take a district prescribed test at the end of each chapter. • The test is graded according to percent correct. • Students may retake tests for a higher grade at lunch or after school.

  5. 25% Classwork • Students receive a Chapter Assignment sheet (Stamp Sheet) with a complete description of daily assignments. • Class Work is completed during class using Cornell style notes. Headings are on the left hand side of the page for easy access to examples of the current work. • When students are absent, they must make up the Class Work by copying examples from the book for that lesson.

  6. 25% Home Work • Students use the Practice Workbook for most Homework assignments. • During class, we complete at least one problem from each section so that there is an example from each section to look at when they get home. • There is homework nearly every day. • Homework needs to be ready to be corrceted at the beginning of class.

  7. 0% INFORMATIONAL ONLY • When you receive a grade printout, there will be INFORMATIONAL ONLY scores that do not get averaged into your grade. • SIXTH GRADE DATA: This is your sixth grade score in mathematics. • BEAT THIS TEST SCORE: This is a goal Ms. Terry has set for you based on your sixth grade data. • BEAT THIS MATH WEEK SCORE: This is the goal Ms. Terry has set for you that will enable you to do enough work to adequately prepare for tests.

  8. How can I help my child? • Check your child’s school planner and Chapter Assignment sheet each day to see what has been assigned.. • Encourage your student to choose extra credit puzzles from the back counter if they need more work. • Encourage your child to ask for help in class, at lunch or after school.

  9. Thank you for yourinterest in this class. • Please feel free to visit the classroom at any time. • You may call me at 631-5480 to check on your child’s progress. • You may e-mail me at terrys@bcsd.com. I generally answer e-mails during lunch and after school.
