7th Grade Mathematics
Syllabus
Second Semester
We will continue on with the District Math Curriculum - C-SCOPE Units 7 -12.
District Mandated Mini-Assessments will be given every Fridayafternoon. The C-SCOPE Assessments willbe at the end of each Unit.
Tutoring will be provided on a weekly basis after school. Any student who needs extra assistance, helpwith missed/late work, or lessons missed when absent are encouraged to attend.
Grading Policy - 1) A minimum of three grades will to be entered perweek. Grades must reflect student mastery of TEKs. 2) A weekly Grade level Team commonassessment will be given to each student. The assessments may be EISDdesignated CSCOPE unit tests, EISD Benchmarks, GLP designed assessments.
50% Formative grades (Daily Work, Participation, Homework, InteractiveStudent Notebook)
50% Summative grades (CSCOPE Unit Assessments, Projects, PerformanceIndicators)
Homework Policy- Homework will begiven in a weekly packet.
