While homework comprises 0% of the overall grade, diligent completion, or lack thereof, can be the difference between a passing and failing grade.
Homework will be assigned daily, excluding Fridays, and checked in class the following class period. It is designed to give students an opportunity to apply and practice concepts learned in class. Homework should be completed with work shown for every problem. In the event that a problem is too complicated, students are encouraged to utilize the Homework Help on the CPM website and complete the problem to the best of their ability.
Homework should:
a. be neatly written in a homework journal, in pencil,
b. be properly labeled, including a title, chapter, section and page number, e.g. “HW: 2.2.3 (p. 96) #62-66
c. and incorrect answers should be corrected in red pen the next day when we review the homework in class.
All assignments are written on the homework board and listed on the homework calendar of this class website. Absence does not excuse a student from homework. Credit will still be given if a student needs an extra day to complete an assignment due to absence.
