6th Grade Advanced Math - PC\|MAC
6th Grade Advanced Math Syllabus
I am very excited about this year’s math class. We will be using several hands on approaches to learn new concepts. We will also be performing STEM challenges each quarter to prepare you for either college or future careers. Together we can make this a successful year.
Advanced Math Requirements
In advanced math your child will cover the 6th grade course of study in the first semester. The rest of the year will be spent on seventh grade course of study requirements. The quarterly EQT’s will coordinate with the quarterly objectives, but the state testing will only test 6th grade requirements. There is time built into the pacing guide before the state testing to review 6th grade material.
School-Wide Rules and Expectations
The following rules and expectations are school-wide. They apply in and out of the classrooms, in the hallways, in the restrooms, in the cafeteria, any other area on campus, and on the buses.
• Be Respectful
o Use words that support and compliment. Use appropriate language. Recognize that everyone is a person of value. Dress appropriately at all times.
• Be Responsible
o Always be where you are supposed to be. Take care of the school, your belongings, and the belongings of others. Perform better today than you did yesterday. Complete tasks with integrity and pride. Be trustworthy.
• Be Resourceful
o Listen, pay attention, and think. Never trouble another for what you can do yourself. Use time efficiently. Seek help from experts. Learn through trial and error.
• Be Positive
***These are also my classroom rules and expectations. Classroom procedures refer to how things are done on a daily basis. Those will be addressed in class.
Behavior Binder/Tardy Log
In class, I will keep a quarterly behavior binder and tardy log. Each log begins again at the beginning of each quarter. The behavior binder includes the following steps for infractions:
• Step one: verbal warning
• Step two: behavior essay
• Step three: parent, student, teacher conference
• Step four: parent, student, teacher, administrator conference
• Step five: office referral
The tardy log includes the following steps for being tardy. This includes being tardy for school in the mornings and being tardy for each class during the day.
• Step one: verbal warning
• Step two: teacher conferences with student
• Step three: contact parent
• Step four: office referral
Make-up Policy
My make-up policy for classwork, homework, quizzes, and tests is in accordance with the school system’s protocol. I will give three days after an absence for a student to complete any make-up assignment, quiz, or test. Students must come to me and ask for all make-up assignments and make arrangements for completion.
Conferences
My conference time is from 12:36-1:26. Please feel free to call the school at 824-4134 any time that you have a concern. You may also send in a written request or email for a conference if you have any questions or concerns. My email is wlcornelius@.
Homework
Homework will be given Monday, Tuesday and Thursday nights. The homework should not take more than 20 minutes to complete. I give homework for two reasons. I want the students to see if they can still do the work after they are out of the classroom setting, and I want you to be informed of the work that they are being assigned in class. Students should be writing down all homework assignments in their student planner daily.
Materials and Supplies
The 6th grade supply list includes all materials that will be needed for math class. I will go over the materials they will use in math class during the first week of school. Please make sure your child has all supplies listed as soon as possible. Please see the supply list on the school’s website.
Grading System
10% Homework
30% Quizzes and Classwork
60% Major Tests
• Quizzes or major tests are given weekly throughout the quarter. Students should be writing down all scheduled quizzes and tests in their student planners.
Thank you,
Wendy Cornelius
