Homework
Homework
Homework will be assigned regularly and will be reviewed the following day for students to make corrections and ask questions. The expectation is that assignments will demonstrate thoughtfulness, quality, neatness, and that directions have been followed and completed on time. Choosing not to complete your homework will result in poor grades. The use of the Internet for homework is limited. Homework assignments will connect directly to your unit tests and will be used as your study guide, to prepare for the test. If you have questions about an assignment, feel free to email me anytime, see me before school, stop in during study hall, speak to me before you leave my class . . . however, it is inappropriate to ask for help right before class or as I am collecting the assignment in question. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to find out what you missed and to complete the assignment.

I am available after school, most days – so if you have been absent and need help getting caught up, I am happy to set up a time to meet. Additionally, you will have a forty-minute study hall each day.
