HUMANITIES 10 GRADING

Your trimester grade depends on three factors:  
        1.  Your classwork, including your class participation
        2.  Your daily homework reading
        3.  Your performance on exams

You will receive "daily grades" for in-class work and daily reading quizzes over your homework assignments.  The average of these contributes 50% to your trimester average.  We usually have between fifty and sixty daily grades, and I generally drop your two lowest ones.

At the end of each teaching unit, we have a "major test."  There may be anywhere from one to three exams during a trimester.  The average of these contributes the other 50% to your trimester average.  I do not drop major test grades at all.

So:  "daily grades" = 50%
         "major tests"   = 50%
      TRIMESTER
             GRADE        = 100%
