Evaluation:       Tests, Mental Math, Daily Work

To do well in this course, you should have a good prerequisite mark (70% minimum) and good work habits.  There will be mental math and homework everyday.  You are responsible for all mental math and daily exercises. 

Good attendance and punctuality is essential.  You will need a scientific calculator, pencils, eraser, ruler, red pen, looseleafs and a binder.  The homework from the previous day must be completed and corrected with red pen.  Keep all of your notes and daily exercises organized in a binder.  Assignments will be randomly collected for marks.

A test will be written every second week.  All tests are cumulative.  Tests will be returned the following class with the test corrections due at the end of the same week.  A parent signature is required to have your lowest test eligible to be dropped.

It is your responsibility to get as much help as needed in and out of class time.  Forming a study group with classmates is helpful.  I give extra math help from 8:00 – 8:30 am Monday – Thursday and from 3:30 – 4:30 pm Wednesday.
