CWCS’s Math 5 online course offers students the opportunity to study at home while employing technology as a learning tool, meeting with other students in a virtual classroom, and receiving live instruction from a teacher.
Course Overview: Math 5 meets 3x per week.
Prerequisites: none
Curriculum: Required curriculum may be available at the Learning Center on a first come basis. If needed, ESs can order curriculum using the OPS catalog which will have the most up-to-date pricing. Students will need: GO Math 5 workbook
Materials:
- Working external headset with mic (computer speakers do not work successfully with the Canvas setup). Plug-in headsets (rather than Bluetooth) work best with Jigsaw. After the third week of class and no headset, students may begin to lose participation points for the class. Class is much more engaging if all students can talk in class using their mic. Suggested: Office Depot Logitech Clear-Chat

Attendance: Attendance is required. The Truancy Policy applies to Canvas courses. An unexcused absence may be counted as a truancy.
- Excused Absence is defined as:
The parent shall notify the teacher by phone of the absence at least 24 hours* prior to the time the class meets.
- Unexcused Absence is defined as:
An absence that does not accompany a parent phone call to the instructor at least 24 hours* prior to the time the class meets.
*If there are extenuating circumstances that do not allow for at least 24 hours, then the teacher must still be notified prior to the start of class; allowances may be made depending on the circumstances. Examples of extenuating circumstances: car accident, sudden illness, etc. Students should arrange a "back up plan" in case of unexpected computer problems the day of the class (i.e. make pre-arrangements to go to a neighbor, friend, relative, library, etc.)
When students are absent, they must contact the instructor via email or contact another classmate to obtain the homework assignment.
Absent/Late Work: Late assignments are accepted through the Chapter (usually a month). Once we have the Chapter Test, the assignments are locked.
Daily Homework: Most homework will be submitted through Canvas and Think Central. Occasionally students will practice concepts in Kahoot. You’ll need to submit some work samples by either scanning or taking a photo of the workbook page and uploading this into Canvas. All communication will be made through Canvas’ email feature.
Test & Quizzes: Students take chapter tests and online quizzes. The tests will be posted in Canvas for the students to download or will be assigned online. Specific instructions for the quizzes and tests will be given in class, including procedures for submission and due dates. Due dates and cut-off dates will be posted for each test on the Canvas assignment page.
Final Exam Students have a final test at the end of each semester.
