Class Room Expectations
I expect all students to come to class prepared to work and learn and to be a positive active participant in their learning.

Materials Needed
- Something to write with (preferably pencil).  All tests and quizzes must be done in pencil.
- Graph paper.  We do a lot of graphing in class and for homework.  Students can do all of
  their work on graph paper.
- CC3 students are provided a packet that contains all in-class activities.  These should come every day.
- CC3 and CCA have packets that contain all review/preview problems.  These should also come to class every day.  
- A binder and loose leaf paper.  These are optional but students will need to be organized and 
  be able to find their notes and homework when needed.

Grading
Grading is done on a 4 - point rubric.  
4 - Robust:  Mastery of the target is demonstrated and an organized and detailed justification leads to a proven conclusion.  One or more of the following is demonstrated:  Analysis, Application, or Explanation of how/why the process works.
3 - Proficient:  The solution is correct and has a clear mathematical justification. 
2- Developing:  Partial understanding of the target is demonstrated and /or justification may not be detailed, clear, complete or precise. 
1- Basic:  A minimal understanding of the process to arrive at a solution and the work is incomplete or has significant errors.  
0 - None:  the work does not show any knowledge of the concept or is not an appropriate method to lead to the conclusion. 


Students will be graded on review/preview completion, learning target quizzes, team tests, checkpoints, and individual assessments.
     - review/preview consists of the nightly homework assignments and learning target
        quizzes are assessments that are based on the learning targets
       explored during the week and are worth 15% of a students grade.  
     - team tests are assessments of how the students are working as a team.  They are
       worth 15% of the students grades.  I do not allow retakes on team tests as they are
       an assessment of how the team is working together.
     - individual assessments are worth 70% of the students grade.  One form of
       individual assessment is chapter tests.  Another form of individual assessments is a
       checkpoint.  These are benchmarks of skills that students are expected to master.  

Corrections on learning target quizzes are encouraged within a week of taking them.  Retakes of individual assessments are encouraged and need to be completed within a week of the original assessment.
