Information for Math Class
We will be using Microsoft Teams and One Note Class Notebook for ALL assignments, notes, links, and some assessments.
Please do NOT use Schoology for Math.
Please see attached files for Open House Information and the Math 8 Course Outline.
Assignments
There is no nightly homework for math.
There will be a weekly sheet each week.
Weekly sheets alternate between 5 multiple choice questions one week to 2 open response questions the following week.
Weekly sheets are worth 10 points: 5 points for completion & 5 points for accuracy. Work must be shown for full credit.
Grades
Grades are based on total points earned.
There is no penalty for late work and all late work will be accepted until grades close.
There is no extra credit. Why not?
- Weekly sheets can be corrected to raise your score.
- Many graded assignments allow for a second try for a higher score.
Please remember that grades are not updated instantly on Power School.
Specific information about daily learning may be found on the Team 8 webpage.
Information for Math 8 AIS
The purpose of Math AIS is to build confidence and teach students to advocate for themselves.
Classes are smaller, which allows more time and opportunity to ask questions.
AIS meets every other day.
Students may use AIS time to work on weekly sheets.
Class time includes a daily thinking routine and time to review the current math topic.
