FAQ
What are we doing today?
Social Studies!
What’s my grade? What assignments am I missing?
Check Aeries for your grade or for missing assignments. If you are unable to check Aeries, you can go to Mr. Stephens’ classroom in the morning to check.
How can I bring up my grade? Is there extra credit I can do?
Turn in class work COMPLETE and do your homework. Study for tests. Turn in your missing assignments. I may give the entire class an extra credit opportunity, but I do not give extra credit to individual students.
I turned in an assignment but Aeries says it’s missing. What do I do?
Check the No Name box, your work folder, your binder, your backpack, at home, etc. If it’s in none of those places, I do not have record of you turning it in.
Can I turn in this assignment late?
You can turn in late assignments for half credit, or you can attach a late pass to your completed assignment for full credit.
I left my homework at home. Can I turn it in tomorrow?
The assignment is late, and the late policy (see above) applies.
I can’t find my paper or I left it at home. What do I do?
I do not always have extra copies. If you have lost a paper, you can check Google Classroom and print it at home, or you can recreate the assignment on a piece of paper. If it’s not online or you can’t get to a computer, you’ll need to borrow somebody else’s paper to see what you need to do.
Do I need to answer in complete sentences?
Yes, always, unless Mr. Stephens tells you otherwise (Remember – RACE the question.)
What do I do when I’m done?
Work on missing assignments or homework for social studies.
Review the current concept in the social studies textbook.
With permission, get a Chromebook and watch videos in Discovery for the current concept.
Work on homework or missing assignments for other classes.
When is Mr. Stephens available for help?
I am available for help before school every day, from 8:15-8:40, unless I have a meeting. I am also available for help at times during lunch. Check with me if you plan on coming in for extra help.
