Homework is usually done in class, but may need to be finished at home. Some work will be independent and some will be group or partner work. The average of all your homework assignments will be 25% of your grade. Because each lesson builds on the next, all work is expected to be completed on time. Late work will be an automatic 50%.
Missing work will be graded as a zero until it is turned in.
Assessments will be given and consist of quizzes, tests and projects. Test grades and projects will be weighted higher than quizzes. Assessments will be 75% of the total grade.
