b. The corrections are completed prior to the re-take time and stapled to the back of the original test. The student needs to go over the corrections with me to show me they are ready to take the re-test.

c. Re-takes should be completed before the next chapter test.

d. The second score on the re-take will become the new score if all criteria was completed prior to the first test.

e. If not the student must complete 100% of the homework, go over corrections prior to re-take, and will receive at best a 75%.

D. “Open notes” for quizzes which are formative. Homework assignments are considered to be part of your notes.
