EMAIL/ Message me IMMEDIATELY if you can't access something. Some of the sharing permissions have been messed up!!
On time is best. Late is better than not at all.
MOST work will be accepted late. MOST work can be turned in UP TO 14 days after the original due date.
Work that is MORE THAN 5 days late will have a -15 points penalty.
Any exceptions to this policy will be discussed in class as they come up.
You are encouraged to revise & resubmit your work when you are unsatisfied with your grade.
MOST assignments can be revised and resubmitted for up to 7 days after they have been returned.
Assignments graded based solely on COMPLETION can not be resubmitted for a higher grade.
You are encouraged to come meet with me to review your assignment before you revise & resubmit.
You are encouraged to make CORRECTIONS to any quiz or test taken in this class.
CORRECTIONS must be made in person during regular extra help times (this means AFTER SCHOOL for most of you). Corrections must be made within 7 days of the test/ quiz being returned.
You must bring the ORIGINAL test/ quiz when you come for your Corrections.
You can earn back 50% of your missed points. So if you originally scored a 70/100 on a test, you could earn back 15 (of the missing 30) points.
Corrections ARE NOT available for any quiz/ test where you were allowed to use your notes/ materials.
There is a ZERO TOLERANCE policy for cell phones, smart watches, earbuds, etc. There are only TWO acceptable places for your cell phone to be during class time. Your phone needs to be EITHER in your assigned “pocket” up front earning you points or it needs to be in your bag. If you don’t have a bag, your phone MUST be in your assigned pocket. Earbuds must be removed during class. Both of them.
When you are absent, it is YOUR responsibility to find out what work you missed and make up that work.
On MOST DAYS, an email will be sent with a link to the Daily Summary for your class. The Daily Summary, which is posted on your MAIN CLASS PAGE on this website and on your Google Classroom will summarize what we did in class on that day and provide links to digital copies of all resources.
When you are absent, your missed assignments will generally fall under the LATE WORK POLICY
If you are absent, you may be excused from certain PARTICIPATION BASED assignments like Do Nows, Exit Tickets, and Review Games.
If you are absent for an extended period of time, PLEASE come see me to work out a schedule for making up your work.
If you cut class on the day of a test or quiz, you can not make up the test or quiz.
If you cut class and miss an in class activity (like a group assignment, a gallery walk, or a "mixer"), you will not be given an alternative assignment. You will receive a zero.
If you cut class, you will receive a 0 for any PARTICIPATION BASED assignments like Do Nows, Exit Tickets, and Review Games.
You are expected to come to class on time. If there is an actual reason that you are late, get a pass.
If you miss a PARTICIPATION BASED assignments like Do Nows, Exit Tickets, and Review Games because you are tardy, you will receive a 0 for that assignment.
