Tests/quests/Quizzes
Grading: All work done for class counts! Every homework, lab, test, and quiz will be assigned a certain number of points. All of the points will be added up at the end of the quarter. Your grade will be based on the number of points you earned out of the total number. For example, if the point total for the quarter is 300, and you earned 250, your grade would be a B (250/300 = 83%).
Tests: There will be 2-3 tests or quizzes per quarter. Tests will be given on the department designated testing day which is Tuesday (or Thursday as a secondary day). Each test can be worth up to 100 points.
Quizzes will be worth fewer points than tests. They can be given at any time – with or without notice. They may also be open-book. Therefore, make sure your homework and class notes are always up to date!
Labs: There will be several formal labs, that must be written up as a report. Each lab report will be worth between 10-40 points. Late lab reports lose 1 point for each day they are late!
Extra Help: Extra help day is Monday after school (or Wednesday if a test is going to be given on a Thursday). You can make an appointment with me to meet after school on another day or during lunch.
