Grading Policy

1
The grading for this class will be based on percentages earned for a point ratio. A students grade
will be determined by the percentage they receive over the course of a marking period. The
assignments will be divided into the following categories:

Assignments and Activities (classwork/homework)

Any assignment that is not finished will be graded accordingly. I provide students with an extra
day to complete classroom assignments. If students refuse to participate in classroom activities, a
grade of 50% will be issued. Homework will be assigned Monday-Thursday. A math assignment
and a spelling assignment will be issued at the beginning of each day. Students must complete
the homework by the following morning. Students will receive a weekly reading log that should
be filled out when students read a new book. Notice: this shall be completed and signed by
parents weekly on Fridays.

Quizzes/Tests: (formative/summative)
Quizzes are administered at the end of each chapter or unit. If students are not satisfied with their
grade, they are allowed one re-do on quizzes. I provide students with a choice of a tool for a
math quiz such as a calculator. All material for quizzes and tests are reviewed ahead of time to
discuss misunderstandings. Unit tests will not be announced but are usually administered at the
end of each marking period. This will be a summative grade and I will not allow a re-do. If
students need assistance, I will be available for most days before the end of the day. If students
are absent on a quiz or test day, they will be responsible for completing the assessment the
following day during class. If students fail to make up a quiz or test, a 50% will be issued as a
grade.
Class Participation
Unless noted otherwise, all students are required to participate in classrooms activities. This will
be a participation grade and students will be provided a rubric. Students are encouraged to
contribute to class learning. Not participating will lower a students participation points
accordingly. Learning and discussing among friends is a rewarding experience.

By signing, you agree, understand, and will follow the rules at all times.
