GRADE BREAK DOWN Grade Breakdown: Tests: 40% Homework: 30% Projects: 20% Participation (notebook and discussion): 10%

HOMEWORK Homework and discussion go hand-in-hand in my class. If you do not do your homework, you cannot be expected to participate in the classroom activities or discussion. Therefore, choosing to not do your homework results in a double-penalty in the gradebook. Must be turned into the basket at the beginning of the hour.

ASSIGNMENTS Must be in pencil or blue and black ink You may type up your homework Attach it to your worksheet if one was given Must be legible!

STANDARDS OF PREPARATION You are in an academic environment, so your work will be viewed as such. Work will be assessed for content, but also for structure and academic merit. All spelling/ grammar errors will result in losing points on tests, essays or projects 1 point per error Proper language is expected on all assignments throughout the year. No “texting” language

MAKE-UP WORK After an absence, it will be your responsibility to check for make-up work in the designated location within the classroom. You will receive one extra day for everyday they were absent to complete and turn in make-up work before it is considered late. Ex: Absent Monday--get work Tuesday--due Wednesday You are responsible for scheduling a meeting with me before or after school to make-up tests/quizzes. Pick up late work in your class binder, The class lesson will be posted on my school website
10
LATE WORK Homework must be turned into the homework bin at the beginning of the class period or else it will be considered late. Late work will be accepted one day late for 50% of the allotted points. Worth 100 point now worth 50 points Work later than ONE day will not be accepted at all However I will allow each student ONE free pass per semester. I understand that life happens. If you wish to use your free pass you must talk to me before class starts.

EXTRA CREDIT There will be TWO extra credit assignments offered. (one per semester) You must complete the entire assignment if you wish to receive the extra credit points. These are not mandatory assignments. The extra credit will be added to your final grade at the end of each semester.

ELECTRONICS Due to academic security and student safety, the use of cell phones during class time is prohibited. Cell phones will be confiscated if they ring, students are found talking or text messaging, or if they are visible in the classroom. Students are discouraged from bringing other electronic devices to school. Items such as iPods or any other electronic devices are often stolen and distract students from educational opportunities in class and are subject to confiscation. ---Student Handbook
