  2. Key Points for Curriculum Night • Curriculum Goals • Homework Expectations • Attendance and Assignments • Late/Missing Work • Grading Policy

  3. Throughout middle school, students shouldcontinuetodevelopproficiencywith the Common Core’s eight Standards for Mathematical Practice:

  4. Homework • Assigned approximately 2-4 nights per week as practice and/or reinforcement of concepts • HW assignments are to be recorded in planner/agenda • When unsure of concepts, students are to use their resources to assist them with assignments (notes, textbook, logic, reasoning). • HW credit is earned for attempting to complete assignments, and students are expected to come to class prepared to ask questions when they are unable to do so. • Not everything will be right on the first try, but it is figuring out what went wrong that helps students to learn.

  5. Late or Missing Assignments • Late homework accepted one day late for ½ credit. No credit given for assignments turned in more than one day past date due.

  6. Attendance and Assignments • Homework and assessments must be made up when absent • Students have one day for every day absent to make up work for full credit When a student is absent, it is their responsibility to: • find out about missed assignments and notes • copy missed notes, complete and turn in missed assignments • talk to the teacher to arrange a time to make-up missed assessments.

  7. Grades Grading Scale: • 100-90% = A • 89-80% = B • 79-70% = C • 69-60% = D • 59% = F • 80% of overall grade based on assessment scores • 20% of overall grade based on homework and class Work
