United States History Drew Spoonhower EXT Website:

Content Standards Founding of the new World Colonies Revolution Independence Constitution Troubles leading to the Civil War Civil War Reconstruction Reform and Industrialization

Grading I grade on a Total Point system.. Each assignment, test, project and activity is given a grade based upon point value. At the end of the quarter, I will total the point and base the grade on a traditional percentage scale. 100%-90%=A79%-70%=C 89%-80%=B69%-60%=D If a student falls bellow a 70% in the quarter, a grade print out will be sent home to be signed. 80% in Honors

Homework/Tests Homework will be given weekly in conjunction with classroom discussion and activities. Usually homework will be given Monday through Thursday, but very infrequently there may be an assignment or project over the weekend. If one is absent, they receive twice the number of days absent to make up work…It is their responsibility to get all made up work.
