8. Rotation (6th and 7th Grade)
6th and 7th Grade students will have Spanish class either on Days 1, 2, 3 or Days 4, 5, 6.
Students are responsible to have all work assigned on a Day 3 or 6 competed for the following Days 1 or 4 respectively.
If a student is absent on a Day 3 or 6 they are to come to me, or check my website, to find out what assignment/project rubric/study guide they may need.

9. Binders and Do-Now Dictionary
Students are to keep a Spanish Binder which will act partially as a Spanish Textbook
Keep loose leaf paper in your binder
Keep all handouts in your binder (Do not throw them away!)
Keep all study guides in your binder (Do not throw them away!)
Keep up with your Do-Now Dictionary every day and if you are absent get their word of the day from a classmate
I will periodically be checking binders and Do-Now Dictionaries for accuracy and completeness.

10. Homework Homework is always due on the posted due date
If absent is YOUR responsibility to get the missed assignment
If you do not understand the homework try it anyway (something is better than nothing!)
Homework will be graded on a 3 point scale
3 points for a complete assignment. 2 points for a messy or mostly complete assignment. 1 point for a barely completed assignment. 0 points for a totally blank or forgotten assignment.
NO LATE HOMEWORKS ACCEPTED (unless absent)

11. Projects All projects are assigned with a scoring rubric
Projects MAY be turned in late with the following deduction from your grade: 1 Day late -10%. 2 Days late -20%.
Projects that have not been turned in by the end of the 2nd late day will be given a 0%.

12. Tests and Quizzes
All Tests and Quizzes are given a study guide prior to the actual Test or Quiz
The Study Guides tell you EVERYTHING that is going to be on the test/quiz and are a great tool to help prepare
If you lose your study guide you can find a copy of one on my website

13. Absences
If you are absent you are responsible to find out your missed work
You can either ask me about the missed work or check my website
You receive one extra day to finish any MISSED homework and any projects that were due on the day you were absent will not be marked late
Projects or homework that are due on the day that you were absent are due immediately upon your return

14. Art Table and Dictionaries
KEEP THE ART TABLE CLEAN
Return the items as you found them
Treat the dictionaries with EXTRA care because they are BRAND NEW
Ask me before you use or borrow anything from the art table

15. Classroom Rules, Procedures, and Practices
