Curriculum:
We are using the Savaas EnVision Math 2.0 curriculum, the same curriculum used throughout the entire school, at appropriate grade level. The material will be taught at a somewhat slower, more individualized pace due to the Resource setting.
Materials (provided): EnVision Math 2.0 Workbook, Chromebook, TI 30x Calculator, Ruler, Graph paper, highlighter
Materials (brought by student): Notebook, No. 2 Pencil (regular or mechanical), Colored pencils
Grading:
Quizzes/Exams: 50%
In-class assignments/ALEKS: 50%
Homework: 7th and 8th grade students will have an on-going assignment to spend 60 minutes per week working on the ALEKS program. 6th grade students will be assigned 90 minutes per week due to the extra period of math included in their schedule. We will have 1 period per week (barring exceptions for testing, ect.) in the computer lab to work on it, and some additional class time if we have completed a lesson and the student has completed their individual book work (6th graders well receive some additonal time in class due to the block schedule). If they have not completed the required 60/90 minutes in class, any time they need to make up will be homework.
Generally, I don’t assign much other homework, however, if a student has not completed an assignment in class they are able to take it home to complete and turn in the next day. Please note that students will be expected to keep track of their own make up work.
Rules/Expectations:
School/district policies available in the student handbook will be enforced.
