Welcome to Mr. Smith's

Math 7 Class

 I'm very happy to be your math teacher this school year, and I hope you enjoy it, too!  This is the syllabus for my Math 7 class, which is a document that tells you what to expect out of the class and what you need to know in order to be successful in the class.

What You Will Learn:   When you finish this school year, you will be able to solve real world math problems using positive and negative numbers, equations, percents, proportional thinking, and formulas related to geometric shapes, like circles.

Materials:      Everyday, you need to bring: 1) notebook & pencil; 2) chromebook & charger; 3) earbuds (if possible)

Attendance Policy:   Students are expected to be on time to class.  If you are absent from class, check the current module for the assignment and homework.

Grading Policy:    Some student activities carry more weight than others.  That means some activities affect your grade more than others do.  Here is the list of how your final grade will be calculated:

Assignments     =   65%.       

Tests/Quizzes  =   25% 

Participation    =   10%

Total       =   100%

Late Work Policy:     A report card will be sent home to your house every six weeks.  I will accept late work up until the end of the current six week grading period.  When a new six week grading period begins, I will not accept late work from previous grading periods.

Citizenship:      The most important word to remember about citizenship is RESPECT.   We all need to show one another respect and kindness in our discussions, chats, responses, postings, and small group interactions.  Here are a few more important aspects of citizenship for our classroom:

1) dress appropriately for school; 2) give the speaker your full attention; and 3) use appropriate words when speaking and typing.

R.O.A.R.S.  =   Respectful  -  Organized  -  Achiever  -  Responsible  -  Safe
