Mrs. Heydon's Classroom
Finite Math

2015-2016

Mrs. Jessica Heydon  

Hours: I will try to be in my room every morning by 7:45 am. When I am not coaching, I will be available after school until 4:00 pm. My prep periods are 5th and 6th periods. Other times can be arranged also. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to seek help when needed. Math is a subject that builds on itself so it is important to get help early to understand the subject matter. Remember, no question is a stupid question. If you do not know, ASK!!

Classroom Rules:

1.   Be Respectful

Ø Respect your classmates and teacher at all times. This includes listening quietly while others are talking.

Ø Respect the property of the school and others.

Ø Respect yourself.

2.   Be Responsible

Ø Come to class prepared: notebook, folder, pen/pencil, calculator, book, etc.

o   If you do not bring one of these items, you will be sent to your locker to get it and will also be charged a tardy. Be responsible!

Ø Have your assignment done prior to coming to class.

Ø Be in your seat and ready to learn by the time the bell rings.

3.   Do Your Own Work

4.   Have FUN!!

5.   The bell does not dismiss you, I do.


Grading: 90% Tests/Quizzes

               10% Homework & Homework Quizzes

     
 
Homework:

Most homework will be assigned via your computers. MathXL is the program we will use. I allow two days to complete assignments to accommodate for those of you who do not have Internet at home and/or had issues with a connection. I do NOT recommend abusing these two days as you will find yourself falling behind.


Quizzes/Tests: Quizzes and tests are to be completed using a pencil. Quizzes will be announced or unannounced.

Class Participation: Students are expected to contribute to class discussions each day. No points will be assigned for doing so, but if your grade is borderline, class participation may raise your grade. (For example, if you had an 79.8% and participated regularly you may receive a B instead of a C)

Extra Credit: Extra credit is offered occasionally on quizzes/tests. 

Leaving the Classroom: If you want to leave the classroom for whatever reason, you must sign out and get permission first. If you start to abuse this, I will not let you leave the classroom.

Tardiness: Each person is allowed two “free” tardies per semester. Each tardy after that will result in a 30-minute detention to be served that day or next morning.

Cheating: Cheating will not be tolerated! The school handbook’s consequences will be used.

Absence: If you know you are going to be absent make sure to notify me as soon as you can so that you can be given the assignment for the day. If you are not able to notify me in advance, make sure to notify me as soon as possible so I can get you your assignment(s). All assignments missed will be due no later than two times the number of days absent. My website is a good place to get any missing assignments also.

*Note: Make sure to have the assignment that was due the day of the absence completed, as it will be due the day you return.
