Math
Math is my favorite subject! We utilize the Math Expressions series, but add in other resources and activities throughout the year.

The "Math Notebook" is our way of keeping our notes organized. The notebook is expected to be in class each day and can be used while working on all homework, quizzes, and tests - yes, even those tests!

Students can expect to have math homework daily. On many days, time is given in class to complete the work, so it's beneficial to be focused and work efficiently!

I do allow graded homework to be "fixed" and returned throughout each trimester, as long as it is turned back in during the same grading period it was assigned. "Fixes" result in half of the credit back (for example, if a student loses 6 points on the assignment and fix all problems correctly, the maximum amount of points he or she can earn back is 3 points). I update Skyward as often as I can and will add a comment when an assignment is "fixed".

I do not allow quizzes to be fixed and retaken.

I do, however, allow unit tests to be retaken (not the exact same test, but a similar test will be provided). In order to retake a test, students must return their original test with a parent signature. I take the better of the two scores, so there is no "risk" of retaking a test and receiving a lower score. Retake opportunities are only offered during lunch recess on assigned days.
