Course Description and Objectives:
This is a second year Algebra course with a traditional textbook. Your notes taken during class and your textbook are the foundation to mastery of the material. Eleven units will be covered this year. These units consist of:
Unit 1: Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences
Unit 2: Quadratic Relations and Equations
Unit 3: Polynomial Functions and Equations
Unit 4: Rational Functions and Equations
Unit 5: Radical Functions and Equations
Unit 6: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions and Equations
Unit 7: Trigonometric Functions
Unit 8: Choosing a Function Model
Unit 9: Probability
Unit 10: Design of Statistical Studies
Unit 11: Gathering Data, making Inferences, and Justifying Conclusions
COURSE GRADING POLICY:
A student’s grade is based on quizzes (15%), unit tests (75%), and Skills for Success (10%), i.e. using class time to get work done and taking responsibility for learning. No extra credit or bonus points will be used in determining student grades.
Grading Scale:
|Standards-Based Grading |Letter |Percentage Value |Credit Granted |Transcript Value |
|Description |Grade | | | |
|Exceeds Standards |A |93 – 100% |yes |4.0 |
| |A- |90 – 92.99% |yes |3.7 |
|Meets Standards |B+ |87 – 89.99 % |yes |3.3 |
| |B |83 – 86.99 % |yes |3.0 |
| |B- |80 – 82.99 % |yes |2.7 |
|Approaching Standards |C+ |77 – 79.99% |yes |2.3 |
| |C |73 – 76.99 % |yes |2.0 |
| |C- |70 – 72.99 % |yes |1.7 |
| |D+ |67 – 69.99 % |yes |1.3 |
| |D |60 – 66.99 % |yes |1.0 |
|Does Not Meet Standards |F |0 – 59.99% |no |0.0 |
Retake Policy:
Quizzes: Quiz corrections can be completed to earn back half of points lost. Corrections may be submitted up until the scheduled date of the unit test.
Unit Tests: Unit test retakes will be available for up to two weeks after initial assessment. There will be no grade penalty for completing a test retake. Students opting to retake the unit test must have completed, and turned in, 100% of the independent practice assigned. Also, students opting to retake the unit test will be given a review assignment that must be turned in prior to retaking the exam.
Late Work Policy:
Late work for each unit will be accepted up to the day of the unit/chapter test.
Academic Dishonesty:
The academic consequence for cheating and plagiarizing will be that the teacher will use a “zero” in the gradebook to communicate lack of evidence. If the student later demonstrates proficiency on that standard, the zero will be changed to reflect that.
Missing Evidence of Learning:
Teachers may use a “zero” in the gradebook to communicate lack of evidence on a summative assessment. If the student later demonstrates proficiency on that standard, the zero will be changed to reflect that. When there is insufficient evidence of learning to report a semester grade, an “F” will be used for reporting student achievement. In the instance of inadequate evidence for a semester report, a student has up to 15 school days to request to enter into an incomplete contract.
