Homework
cont'd
Homework will be checked everyday and questions answered
Homework is approximately 10% of marking period grade
Homework quizzes may be given
Homework grade will be updated in power school every few days
Accurate homework completion is key to your child's success in this
class
Tests and Quizzes
Tests are counted twice, quizzes once
All grades are percents even though each test or quiz is not out of 100
points
Usually 1 or 2 quizzes and 1 test per chapter
Sheet in notebook on ways to study
All tests/quizzes may contain material previously learned
Due to the elimination of midterms, I may be giving a quarterly exam at the
end of each marking period
Report Card
Grade
Based on tests, quizzes, and homework
Occasionally there will be graded assignments or projects
Please check Power School frequently
Grades will not be rounded each marking period
Grades will be rounded at the end of the year when calculating
the final course grade
Extra Help
Given during lunch
Many students take advantage of this
Helpful Websites for Algebra 2
My website has a list of sites to help with algebra (access
from bhspnj.org)
There are also MANY free apps to help with any math topic.
We will use Khan Academy frequently
Absence
Work needs to be made up in a timely manner for credit
and to help with understanding the following lessons
Missed assignments can be found on the Classroom
stream
Missed lessons can be found in the textbook and on the
textbook websites
iPads
Students are expected to have their iPads in class and
charged every day
While in class, students are expected to only use iPads for
math work (online text, checking blog, math apps, class
investigations)
Taking notes and doing homework on the iPad are not
recommended in my math classes
Calculators
We will use TI-34, TI-84, and Casio scientific
We will use TI-84 quite frequently; however, not for most of the
tests/quizzes
Students are NOT required to bring a calculator
If students bring calculators, they should be labeled
A recommended calculator to take the student through senior year
and standardized tests is TI-84...Ebay, Walmart, Staples, Target...
