3. Homework Expectations
Late work will be
accepted with the penalty of a lower grade. An assignment is considered “late” if it is not turned in when the teacher collects it. Students that fail to complete assignments will not be successful in this class.
Additional Resource:
Students can access Moby Max from home. This is a website used through the school system to give your student additional support based on their specific needs.  Each student will be given their login and password. Mobymax.com

Copier paper, ziplock bags, tissue, pencils, paper towels, hand sanitizer, crayons and Clorox wipes.
Homework Expectations
All Homework is expected to be completed and turned in on time. The homework that is assigned will be a review over what we have covered in class.
Evaluation of homework may consist of detailed grading, generalized checking, or a combination of both techniques.
Absences/Make-up
When absent, the student is to contact their teacher to request make-up work once they return to school. Students with excused absences will be given one day for each day absent to make up work.
