Online Textbook: https://sites. google,com/site/sshsalgebraiishome/algebra-ii, Pencil and eraser Notebook ¥ Red pen Loose leaf paper (college ruled) (1) Folder with prongs Calculator Additional materials will be announced as need arises. COURSE EVALUATION: Grades will be based on scored obtained from assignments, notebook, portfolio, project, quizzes, and test/exams. The computation of grades is as follows: A. Participation 10% : B. Assignments 15% C. Notebook / Portfolio 15% D. Quizzes 25% E, Test / Exams = 35% TOTAL: 100% Assignments: 1. Assignments include class work and homework. Each assignment will be from the textbook (additional problems will be assigned from other resources). 2. Each assignment must have the following information on top of the paper: Student's name, Period, Date, Page #, and problem numbers 3. Late assignments will only be accepted if the student has an excused absence with a valid admit slip. ‘They are due 2 days after the date of absence. The student is responsible to make up assignments promptly. 4. You are responsible to take notes. You will need these notes to do your assignments and for future reference. Notebook: Student is responsible to take notes during lecture. Each lesson must have the following information in their notes: Lesson title, I can statement, Vocabularies, Theories/ Corollaries, and/or Properties Portfolio: Student is responsible to keep a portfolio. The portfolio should have the following at the end of each quarter: course syllabus, assignment log, quiz/test log, monthly progress report, and corrected classwork(s/homework(s). Projects: There will be at least one project assigned for each semester. Each project will have a criteria sheet given when the project is announced. Quizzes: Short quizzes will be announced ahead of time. Quizzes are used to prepare the student with the material that will be required for mastery for the tests‘Tests/Exams: A test will be given after each unit and will be announced ahead of time. Secondly, a pre-/post- test will be given each quarter. Whether or not the pre-/post-tests will count towards the student’s grade will be discussed further when the time arises. Attendance/Absences Policy: Attendance is very important in the learning process. To establish an open line of communication, the student should contact the instructor via email or by leaving a message with the school 24 hours in advance to notify the teacher of his/her absence. In the event of an absence, the student must submit an excuse note to the main office with a valid reason for absence upon retum. The absence must be excused in order for missed assignments, quizzes, tests, and/or projects to be excused, accepted at a later date, and/or taken at a later time. In addition, make-up work must be done and/or submitted in a timely manner, Punctuality is equally important. In accordance with Board Policy 411, students who ear a grade of 60% or above but accumulate 6 or more unexcused absences during a semester will earn no credit (NC). Please take note of the following: 3 UNEXCUSEDTARDIES = I UNEXCUSED ABSENCE 10 MINUTES OR MORE TARDY = 1 UNEXCUSED ABSENCE 1-2 DAYS OF ABSENCE = PARENT NOTE 3 CONSECUTIVE DAYS = DOCTOR’S CERTIFICATION However, students who earn a failing grade while accumulating 6 or more absences will receive the failing grade instead of no credit (NC) for the semester. Additionally, Board Policy 330 stipulates that students of non-compulsory age (16 or above) who accumulate 13 or more unexcused absences (includes excused, unexcused, tardiness, and suspensions) may be dropped from school for the remainder of the academic year. FIELDTRIPS: Fieldtrip forms will be signed at the teacher’s discretion. Upon return, the bottom portion of the fieldtrip form must be signed and turned in for the absence to be considered an excused absence. CLASSROOM RULES In addition to the school-wide rules, 1.
