2 Late Work/Tardies Late work will be given half credit and must be turned in within a week of the due date. No late work will be accepted second semester. Absences – students have as many days as they were absent to make up work. Absent work will count against students until it is turned in. When students are absent, it is their responsibility to find out what they missed. Tardy Policy – students are considered on time if they are in their seats when the bell rings.

3 Citizenship Grades Citizenship grades are based on interaction with others, team spirit, friendship, and cooperation. An E student ALWAYS: Provides leadership Takes initiative to help others learn Maintains a positive relationship with peers Exhibits a high degree of cooperation and team spirit Full citizenship rubric is on my website.

4 Common Core Standards Two interim assessments this year; both are aligned with the Common Core. Students will develop independence in closely reading and analyzing complex texts. There will be lots of opportunities for speaking and listening. Argument writing (rather than persuasive writing). Less emphasis on personal narrative writing.
