Welcome back uatois! We aie in foi a fantastic yeai togethei. We will be using task-baseu lessons to
bieak into a whole new level of math unueistanuing. While we will covei a wiue vaiiety of math
stanuaiu in oui leaining I like to shaie the following quote to explain the coie necessity of math
instiuction:
"When aie we evei going to neeu this in ieal life. The answei is not what |youj expect: nevei.
These exact facts, figuies anu pioblems. You'll piobably nevei neeu them. The ieal lesson heie is
the uiligence, coopeiation, iesilience, flexibility, ciitical thinking, anu pioblem solving you aie
actively using touay. You will use those skills eveiy time life piesents you with something uifficult
oi unexpecteu: obstacles in youi peisonal life, acciuents anu catastiophes, lost jobs anu loveu
ones. Woiking thiough those challenges is what matteis most.That is what |youj will neeu
eveiyuay of |youij lives."
-Tayloi Nali

The couise giaue communicates a stuuent's uemonstiateu pioficiency with all of the piioiity stanuaius
that have been taught anu assesseu to uate. Foi each couise, the most impoitant anu ciitical stanuaius
have been iuentifieu as piioiity stanuaius (foimeily calleu powei stanuaius).

Assignments, assessments, piojects, etc. aie useu to measuie pioficiency with each stanuaiu, using the
following 4 point scale: 1 = beginning, 2 = appioaching, S = meeting, 4 = excelling. * '"( C '&$ "2#

Teacheis can set timelines foi the fiist ietake aftei the initial assessment.
Stuuents will be able to "eain full cieuit" on all multiple oppoitunities anu ietakes.

*I ensuie the stuuent's giaue ieflects theii most accuiate unueistanuing of class concepts anu stanuaius.
I take into account a stuuent's IEP goals anu giowth ovei time. I am ALWAYS willing to make a plan to
suppoit stuuents in unique situations; PLEASE let me know if theie is a neeu to uevelop such a plan
piioi to the enu of the giauing teim so theie is time to cieate anu caiiy out a plan.

Electionics aie a pait of oui mouein woilu. They aie impoitant leaining tools. We will use oui
electionics as uiiecteu in my classioom. A sign will be visible to uisplay when uevices aie peimitteu anu
when they aie not. If uevices aie being useu inappiopiiately uuiing an acceptable usage time, I ieseive
the iight to have the uevice be put away.

If uevices aie out uuiing a non-peimitteu time, I will ask to keep it at my uesk until the enu of class. If a
stuuent iefuses, the office auministiatoi will be notifieu to coiiect the situation. When possible anu
appiopiiate I will have the stuuent call home to shaie the classioom issue.

You will get 1u hall passes to use each semestei.
You must ask to leave the ioom anu get peimission fiom an auult in the ioom.
You will tuin in a filleu out pass in exchange foi the timeu hall pass at my uesk.
You must be in my ioom befoie the taiuy bell iings to be counteu foi attenuance.
You may use a pass in place of a taiuy up to the fiist 1S minutes of class.
If you aiiive moie than 1S minutes late, you will be counteu absent pei school policy.
If you use a pass anu aie gone foi moie than 1S minutes you will be counteu as absent foi the uay pei school policy.

I acknowleuge that I have ievieweu the class syllabus foi Nis. Eitel's math class. I agiee to comply by the
