3. My Teaching Philosophy As your child’s teacher, I feel my most important role is to provide him or her with positive feedback and encouragement. In doing so, my ultimate goal is to give your child the self confidence necessary to be successful. I am very enthusiastic about math. It is my sincere hope that some of this enthusiasm will be passed on to your child.

4. Keys to Success Warm Ups Notes Homework (checked just about everyday)  Checking answers in the back of the book, on HAC, or on my website is an integral part of the homework process. Studying Asking for Help

5. Grading Total Points  Homework = 2-4 points per checked assignment  Quizzes = 25-50 points per quiz, usually one per chapter  Tests = 100 points, usually one per chapter  Midterm & Final Exam = 25% of the 2 nd and 4 th marking period grades, respectively  Extra credit assignments are rarely given and are not worth a substantial amount of points.

6. Return of Assessments Policy  All assessments are graded and returned in a timely fashion.  I go over the assessments with the class, touching upon common difficulties.  Students are then given the opportunity to ask questions regarding the assessment.  I collect the tests and keep them in my filing cabinet. Each student has a file folder.  This folder can be taken home upon request.  Scores are published to “HAC” prior to the assessments being returned.  District assessments, i.e. midterms and finals, are not returned.
