  • Parents - I need your help!

1. Daily Warm-ups are another way for me to check for understanding. They are not optional questions, they are required to be answered and submitted during our class time, if present!

2. Encourage students to complete homework on time and per instructions! I usually begin grading an assignment 2-3 days after the due date to accommodate the occasional late turn-in, but once I grade an assignment, I can no longer go back to grade as we discuss the correct answers. Students have 1 week from the original due date to turn in work.

3. Tests are given on TESTING DAYS and on those days students need to be on time as they are only provided the class time for completion of the test. Extra time per certain situations.

Parents - Please bookmark my website as I hope this can help in communication between us! However, please never hesitate to email me @ gbrinkma@lexrich5.org
