I am so glad you have chosen to learn a foreign language!
Different people have different abilities.
EVERYONE can learn another language.
The process you use may be different from the person sitting next to you.

Your semester grades are the only grades on your transcript.
Your grade is based on points not percentages.
Every day you will receive 5 points of participation.
At the beginning of each week you will receive a bell ringer paper for the week.
You will copy the bell work everyday from the board when you enter class.
We will go over the bell work at the beginning of the period.
You must keep up with your bell work paper until Friday at the beginning of class when you will give it to me.
For a 5 day week the bell work paper is worth 25 points.
This is your easiest grade.
If you are off task when you should be copying the bell work you will lose participation points. Quizzes/Tests are also assigned points. Your alphabet test is a spoken memorized test. It is worth 30 points. Your bell work is 25 points a week.
