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 Friday afternoon. The C-SCOPE Assessments will be at the end of each Unit.
Tutoring will be provided on a weekly basis after school. Any student who needs extra assistance, help with missed/late work, or lessons missed when absent are encouraged to attend.
Grading Policy - 1) A minimum of three grades will to be entered per week. Grades must reflect student mastery of TEKs. 2) A weekly Grade level Team common assessment will be given to each student. The assessments may be EISD designated CSCOPE unit tests, EISD Benchmarks, GLP designed assessments.
50% Formative grades (Daily Work, Participation, Homework, Interactive Student Notebook)
50% Summative grades (CSCOPE Unit Assessments, Projects, Performance Indicators)
Homework Policy- Homework will be given in a weekly packet.
