Classroom Resources
Supply List
All students need a 3 ring binder with paper, pencils, and colored pencils for class. Chemistry students also need a scientific calculator. Whatever students don't finish in class is their homework, and most of my work will be on paper. All assignments are posted on Google Classroom each week so that absent students will know what to do or ask for when they return. Work completed during absences should not be turned in through Google Classroom unless the entire class turned it in that way.
All assessments on Quizizz are open-note and can be taken multiple times; the highest grade will be entered. Illuminate assessments can be re-opened for a retake within 1 week after it's given in class IF the student completes a remediation sheet.
Google Classroom & Remind
Welcome to Dr. Cox's page!! Google Classroom will have mostly notes/information posted for each unit unless we are doing a digital activity (which should be no more than 1-2 times per week) as well as any Quizizz assessments. Students should ask for work before class on the day they return from an absence. We have new Google Classroom codes for each class period, which are as follows:
1st period: pj7tjn7
2nd period: 5z66pzg
3rd period: ioatczk
4th period: my7suwl
5th period: wzh54eo
7th period: d45vvhl
