7B Class Discussion

Hello all of 7B!
 
After handing out the test today, I realized that it was not a good idea because we did not have time to completely discuss all details in class. Handing out the completed notes but not talking about all the notes was not a good idea on my part. As a class, we decided to make this test more of a completion grade to see everyone attempt the questions. As long as you attempted the questions, in an appropriate manner, you will receive all participation points. 
 
We only meet on Mondays and Tuesdays. This does not provide us a lot of time to go over every single detail in class. After having a class conversation about how to go about the class this is what we, the class and I, decided:
 
1.) We will have small 5 question quizzes (no more tests).
2.) We will have little review sessions before quizzes. 
3.) To try and get as much content as we can in the little amount of time we have each week, I will find/create readings for you to read. You WILL have notes attached to the readings. This means your homework each week will be filling out the notes. This will allow class time to go over concepts that we are confused about and to use class for more activities/labs to enhance the notes you took. 
4.) That being said, everyone MUST complete the notes or else you WILL fall behind. We will not have time in class to go over every detail. You must be able to work on the content at home. I will be here to help out the best I can, but we must be responsible for our actions and assignments. 
 
I try to be as flexible and as understanding as possible to all my classes. Thank you for understanding and helping us, as a group, figure out a better way to approach our class. We will always be open for suggestions if things still are not working yet. We will find a way for all of us! 
 
Thank you again 7B!
