Tests and Vocabulary Quizzes
TESTS:
1. The weighting for each marking period is listed at the top of the THIS WEEK page
2. There will be at least five tests per marking period
3. A test will be given approximately every week to two weeks
4. Students will know approximately one week in advance of every test
5. Tests are usually multiple choice and free response; we will review the graded test as a class
6. If a student is absent on the day of the test they will be expected to take the test the day when he/she returns or, at a more suitable time
7. Math teachers are no longer teamed, it is up to the students to let us know if they have multiple tests and quizzes on a day that we have scheduled a quiz or a test. We try to accommodate as much as possible, but we need to know in advance. YOU ARE YOUR OWN BEST ADVOCATE!!
Vocabulary Quizzes:
1. The weighting for each marking period is listed at the top of the THIS WEEK page
2. There will be approximately 3-5 vocabulary quizzes each quarter
How Vocabulary Quizzes work:
1. Generally, I will give the students a list of the vocabulary terms at the beginning of the week and for HW they will need to write the definitions.
2. On the day the assignment is due I will distribute the answer key (these are how the terms will appear on the quiz)
3. When the students receive the quiz they will see a term bank at the top and the definitions below. The student must place the correct term with the given definition
4. Students will receive 5 bonus points on the vocabulary quiz for making flash cards or a quizlet. This is due to the day before the quiz
