Khan Academy Topics for September



 Mastery Practice Deadlines & Grading Procedures

Since the Khan Academy Mastery Practice determines 20% of your grade, it is important that you understand the test deadlines and how your grades are calculated.

Below you will find a weekly list of topics to be completed before 7:00 pm on the date given.  All deadlines are on Saturday evenings, in order to give you an extra full day to complete them. Your grades will be determined as follows:

   A:  Mastery achieved before deadline:  100% grade for that topic.

   B:   Mastery not achieved by deadline:  Because the more you practice anything, the better you will become, you will receive 2 points for each question you answer, correct or not. Your maximum grade (if you answer 35 or more questions) will be 70%.  If you were to answer 35 questions but not answer 10 in a row correctly, you will receive a grade of 70%.  If you attempt to answer no questions, your grade will be 0%.  If you do 10 problems and get 9 correct, your score will be 20%.

   C:   Mastery achieved within 5 days after the deadline:  In this case, your grade for mastery will be 80%.  This grade is only for those who achieve mastery within 5 days of the deadline. After 5 days, the grades are final for that
