Cox Mill High School
Honors Math III
Mr. Thatcher
Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome to Honors Math III. I hope this will be a successful semester. I would like you and your student to read the following information. This will outline some of the rules and expectations for the semester. Times are different as well as expectations so please read thoroughly.
Online Expectations:
1. Obey all school policies and procedures including dress code and language.
2. Please mute microphones until you have a question. Questions can be asked through chat or the raised hand feature in Microsoft teams.
3. Be online on time Monday-Thursday synchronous learning during the designated time as posted on my webpage.
4. Check announcements and calendar in canvas daily.
5. Attend office hours when you have questions.
****Grades will be recorded this semester so make sure work is being done daily. Some Aleks and quizizz assignments may have modified grading meaning you may only need a certain percentage to get full credit. That will be made clear in instructions.
Quarter Grade:
Tests 50%
Quizzes 30%
Homework 20%
Mandatory Materials:
3- Ring binder Pencils Notebook paper Graph paper
Recommended apps/ materials:
-calculator app that can be used on assessments
Calculator84- free calculator app for iphone
Genius scan- app to take pics of assignments and converts to pdf. May be used to upload assignments to canvas.
Aleks:
Aleks will be used to assess understanding of material. I will not be assigning topics. You will be expected to do your best on the initial knowledge check. Hopefully you remember your username in Aleks. Your password is now your student id followed by the letter “t”. So if your student id is 12345 your password is 12345t. If you forget or do not know either of those, send me a message through remind. Please make use of the worked examples that Aleks provides to help you with the problems and see how they want the answer submitted.
Quizizz:
Quizizz is an app I use frequently where you will sign in and keep attempting the assignment until you reach the required grade for credit. Please make sure you are signing into quizizz and when you attempt it use you first and last not. No nicknames or just initials. There are unlimited attempts and I will be providing the quizizz code in canvas.
Homework
Homework will be posted on my canvas page. Most worksheets will be posted online and printed at home or problems copied to paper. Homework may be an effort grade or graded for correctness. Always do your best and show your work. Students must try their best and attempt every problem to get full credit. Grades will be taken on homework and in class assessments. Please complete assignments and ask questions when you don’t understand. Assignments will not be re-opened because the student didn’t do them.
Powerschool
The program that is used to import grades is called PowerSchool. Parents and students have their own login information for this site. If not, I will have a link posted on my webpage and canvas page to help with that. My expectation is that parents and students are actively looking at this site. Also, parents this is a great tool for you to check on how your child is doing so that we can both take an active role in monitoring their progress in the class.
Communication
My main method of communication with students will be through remind. I will send out newsletters through email so please fill out the parent contact form and give me your email address.
Email
andrew.thatcher@cabarrus.k12.nc.us

Remind codes

Website/Canvas
There will be some information on the website but all class info will be done through canvas.
Webpage
Attendance:
Attendance is mandatory. Students must login to Microsoft teams daily to be counted present. On Fridays, the students will complete an assignment to be counted present. If they do not complete it, they will not receive credit for the assignment and be marked absent.
I am looking forward to a great semester and want to thank you for your help. Please remember that material is located in canvas and I expect students to communicate through remind. Parents feel free to email with any questions or concerns. Thank you again and remember this is new for all of us and we will work together.
Sincerely,
Andrew Thatcher
