Test Corrections Rules:
Here are the units we'll be covering in math this year:
1. Place Value
2. Fluently Add and Subtract Multi-Digit Whole Numbers
3. Use Strategies and Properties to Multiply by 1-Digit Numbers
4. Use Strategies and Properties to Multiply by 2-Digit Numbers
5. Use Strategies and Properties to Divide by 1-Digit Numbers
6. Use Operations with Whole Numbers to Solve Problems
7. Factors and Multiples
8. Extend Understanding of Fraction Equivalence and Ordering
9. Understand Addition and Subtraction of Fractions
10. Extend Multiplication Concepts to Fractions
11. Represent and Interpret Data on Line Plots
12. Understand and Compare Decimals
13. Measurement: Find Equivalence in Units of Measure
14. Algebra: Generate and Analyze Patterns
15. Understand Concepts of Angles and Angle Measurement
16. Lines, Angles, and Shapes
- Students can do corrections for all unit tests in math
- Students have the opportunity to earn back half the points they lost, anything still incorrect on the corrections will not count against them.
- ALL questions that lost points must be corrected. A test will not be regraded if students do not correct everything.
- Test corrections are due ONE WEEK after the tests are passed back, students cannot do them later in the quarter to improve a grade.
- Test corrections must be done on the test correction papers they can get from me, stapled to the back of the test. Students cannot erase anything on their original test or add anything to their original test.
- All problems should be labeled with the original number of the problem
- Each correction must have the following 3 components: all work shown to re-do the math, an explanation of why their original answer is incorrect, AND an explanation of how they know their new answer is correct ("because I re-did the problem and got a different answer" is not an appropriate explanation)
- Corrections should be done during extra time at school or at home, I'm happy to help students with corrections at school during their free time or snack time, etc.
