7th and 8th Grade Math .......having success in math, comes from keeping up and trying all the time!! You can not be a part time student! Math success happens when you build upon past lessons! I expect you to try and do all lessons and home works.
Home work is for practice...... it is the place for you to redo the skill covered during class! Most Homework is done using Delta Math found on the District Clever site. Students should access this site weekly and complete assignments. Generally each weekly HW assignment is due Friday morning.
Grading Policy - All Grades are posted on Powerschool. (You can access Powerschool by following the links, found on the parent drop down on this Parent Info page - Dodson Home Page)
Student Grades are determined based on a point system. Powerschool will be updated as soon as work is graded. (Generally weekly)
Most of my tests/quizzes will be done in class on paper and some on a website called DeltaMath. Students will have an account.
Tests are worth 60% of your grade, Quizzes - 20%, Classwork/Homework/Participation- 20%....
Tests or quizzes are done weekly.... usually on Friday! Keep up with work and YOU will be ready!
