Problem of the Week:

Ø    Problems will be posted to Teams, every Monday before 8:30am and will be due before 3:30pm every Friday.

              

Late Policy:

Ø    To get full marks, assignments need to be handed in by the assigned due date. 

Ø    For every date late, after the assignment due date, 10% will be deducted from the mark (up to a maximum of 40%).  Weekends count as one day. 

Ø    If a student is absent on a due date, a written excuse from a parent or guardian must be presented upon the student’s return, or the late-day deductions will apply. 

Ø    A student’s mark cannot be lower than 60% given that the student deserves a passing grade on the assignment to begin with.  Any work getting a mark of less than 60% will receive that grade. 

Ø    In order to be graded, all work must be handed in no later than 1 week after the given due date of the assignment.

 

Course Evaluation:

Ø    A demonstration of learning in January may consist of an exam, a cumulative project or assignment to be determined at a later date.

 

Extra Help:

Ø    A Team has been created on Office365 to allow students (during their home days) to have access to a Mathematics teacher for all questions they may have concerning their daily work. Any students enrolled in a 9 or 10 Mathematics course are encouraged to join the team in order to have access to a teacher when doing work/assignments at home. This team will be operational daily during Period 3.
