Mid-Topic Assessment: Single-page written response assessments which cover multiple objectives for a unit using multiple choice and short answer questions. Section quizzes will occur approximately once per week.
15% Supportive Assessments (Homework, and Participation)
Homework: Assigned questions consisting of problems from the textbook or from worksheets consistent with the unit’s objectives. Scoring for each assignment is based on an “attempt all (100%) or nothing (0%)” completion policy.
Students may make corrections on the following assessments for extra credit towards their current Marking Period average. Students haveunlimited attempts to submit these corrections, but theymust be fully complete and correct for students to receive the additional credit.
- Students may make up any missing or incomplete homework assignment for half-credit.
- For any grade below 60%, corrections will restore that grade to a minimum of 60%.
- Occasionally, students who score below 100% on tests will receive an opportunity to make corrections to recover a portion of credit, dependent upon the class average.
