to apply and practice what is done in class. 1. Homework will be checked
each day. 2. Do homework on a SEPERATE PAGE from your notes. 3. Write the page and problem
numbers at the top of the page. 4. Show the problem and
work NEATLY
(you should be able to show some work even if you can't complete the problem). 5. Correct problems as
we go over them in class, fixing the WORK as well as the answer. 6. A repeating pattern of late or incomplete homework will result in
"homework" detention.
7. You will be homework "buddies" with the person sitting next to you. When your homework buddy is absent, you
are responsible to collect any worksheets and handouts given out that day to give to your buddy when he/she returns to school.
Also provide your HW buddy with a list of missed assignments. NOTEBOOKS:
1. A three-ring binder is required. 2. Take notes in class each
day: write down the aim and date, any information on the board or overhead,
the warm up activity. 3. Homework should be done
in your notebook. 4.
Keep worksheets and handouts in your notebook in order. If you are using a spiral notebook, you will need a folder
for handouts and worksheets. 5. Notebooks
will be graded at once each marking period. ATTENDANCE/ MAKE-UP WORK: Success
in this course requires your daily presence and participation. If you are absent for any reason you are expected to complete
all missed assignments and get class notes. 2. You will have as many
days to make up your work as you were absent. I will consider special circumstances and 3. If you are absent the day before
a test or announced quiz, you should BE PREPARED to take the test/quiz
when you return; if you are absent on the day of the test/quiz you are expected to make it up as soon as possible. IF YOU ARE ABSENT FOR MORE THAN 2 DAYS YOU MUST SEE ME FOR EXTRA HELP!
