Math Notebook

• You will have daily math warm-up problems that are to be completed in your math notebook
• Daily math notes
• A grade will be given for effort and completeness

Math Projects/Tasks/Activities

• These tasks may require collaboration and speaking, while at the same time reinforcing important math skills used in professional occupations in real life situations
• All work done in class will count as performance, while any homework will count as homework, and the final product will be graded as an assessment

Math Homework

• You will have math homework every night
• All problems need to be completed. If you are having trouble on a problem, leaving it blank is not accepted, you may do the following:
• Ask help from an older sibling or adult at home
• Call and ask a friend for help
• Seek help before the class from a teacher
• You must always show your work and box your final answer

Assessments

• You will be given an assessment at the end of each chapter
• These are not open note/open book unless otherwise specified by the teacher
• When assessments are returned, they will be signed by an adult and checked off
• It is important to study for each of your assessments, here are some ways to help you:
• ask clarifying questions during class time
• stay focused and pay attention
• join a study group
• seek additional help from teachers during your free time (before  school/break/lunch)
