How to succeed in this class:

• Always come to class on time and prepared to work
• All assigned work will be completed in class.
• When you are absent you have the same number of days missed to hand in all missed work for full credit. For example, if you are absent for 3 days you have 3 days upon your return to complete the missed items.
• Missed assignments can be found on my website and will need to be completed during academic overtime. http://sanderson.myteachersite.com
• Late work must be handed in by the end of the following week. There will be a 25% reduction of points earned for late work. All late work will take place in academic overtime/office hours.

Evaluation:

• Assessment will occur on a daily basis and will be part of the ongoing educational process to enhance learning. Throughout the school year you will be evaluated as much on process as on product.
• Your grade in math will be based on your performance on homework, notes, quizzes, and tests. I will always provide you with detailed guidelines for assignments.
• Grade reports will be available online through www.mingusunion.com .
• If you do your homework and prepare well for tests and quizzes, you will do fine in this class.
