Welcome to Mrs. Frey's Class!

1st and 2nd Periods: Enhanced Advanced Algebra with AP Precalculus

3rd, 5th, 6th Periods: Freshman Geometry: Concepts and Connections

7th Period: Geometry Support Course

 

My planning is 4th period (10:20-11:05). Most emails will be responded to during this time or after school until 3:00.

Students: Please contact Mrs. Frey through Remind. When there is an issue, the student should be the person to contact Mrs. Frey.  Don't wait for your parents to email...handle your communication yourself. Students should automatically b enrolled in the Remind class unless they used their personal email account.  Remind codes can be found in your Google Classrooms.

 

Emails and Remind messages will be read and replied to from 8am-4pm.  Mrs. Frey will be available each day M-Th  to tutor, answer questions, and help troubleshoot any technology issues. Student tutoring (live or through Google Meet) is available from 2:45-3:15 pm by appointment.  Send Mrs. Frey a Remind message to make an appointment.  There is also a department wide tutoring schedule posted on the math bulletin board across the hall from my room.  Feel free to go to any of the subject teachers for tutoring.

 

All daily assignments will be managed in Google Classroom. You will not be turning things in through Google Classroom, but using it more as an information and organization tool.  You will find semester learning plans, links to important resources, and solutions to notes and homework all in Google Classroom.

Here are the Google Classroom codes:

Parents: Please contact Mrs. Frey via email only and only after your child has had their own correspondence with Mrs. Frey via Remind. Please feel free to join the Remind class as well so that you see important announcements.  The students will be managing their learning through Google Classroom, so if you want to see the list of upcoming assignments, you will need to ask them to open their Google Classroom for you.  My email is [email protected]. Unfortunately, misspelling my name will cause the email to not be received.

 

This is a  link to an Amazon list so you can see these items in detail and with the suggestion of what type to buy. You are welcome to get any item at any store and in the style that you like, using the Amazon list only as guidance. 

 

In Columbia County Schools, each semester is a grading period.  Your semester grade will be calculated as 40% from assignments and 60% from assessments.  Geometry is a benchmark course, so the assessment category will be separated with 5% for each benchmark. This is a change from last year as benchmarks were not graded last year. You will need to maintain good work habits daily so that your assignment category (in-class work, Delta Math assignments, DESMOS assignments, ALEKS assignments) is high as well as prepare for assessments (quizzes and tests). Each test will be worth twice as much as a quiz.

 

Reassessment policy: tests can be reassessed after you have competed all homework assignments and have reached a mastery grade of at least 80% for that unit in ALEKS.  It is best to complete those assignments along the way to check your understanding as you are learning the material and this should keep you from needing to reassess.  If you do need to reassess, per county policy, only students that made below a 90 can reassess and your max grade will only be replaced up to a 90. The deadline to reassess is before the next in-class test.

 

80% of your grade comes from your cumulative semester grade and 20% is the semester exam.

 

Please see the Columbia County assessment procedure for more details.

 

 

• Sketch book, composition notebook, or spiral notebook
• 3-ring binder
• Pencils and highlighters
• Black Expo Dry Erase markers
• TI-84 Plus ce graphing calculator - Please make sure to get this model (color of your choice) or the Python version of it (slightly more expensive).  This is the link to the GHS Math Team Fundraiser. The calculator will be delivered to your student in class. 

Support courses are graded differently from the core class that it supports.  Daily activities are graded and expected to be competed to help the student succeed in their core course.
