Education for Tomorrow, Faith for a Lifetime.
I will sometimes use a check system for classroom assignments and labs. Here are their percentage equivalents:
√ ++ = 100
√ + = 85
√ = 78
√ - = 72
√ - - = 65
Homework grades and test/quiz/lab grades are posted weekly in Genesis. Missing assignments (either due to absence or not completed) are noted for each grade.
HOMEWORK POLICY
Homework is usually given on a daily basis. I do my best NOT to give homework over weekend or holidays. It is important that students complete homework. It is practice for them and gives me an indication of their understanding of the concepts. Missed homework is given a grade of 0; this includes absent assignments until turned in after absence.
Homework is posted daily on Google Classroom. If applicable and available, a copy of the material will be posted.
Homework is not "pre-posted" as student understanding needs to be assessed before the next concept can be introduced.
"OFFICE HOURS"
I check my email throughout the day during school. I also check my email nightly from 7:00 to 7:30. If students or their parents have a question or concern about homework/classwork, etc., this is the best time to address them.
