Absences:
If you are absent from class, it is your responsibility to make up any assignments that were due or assigned during the missed class. Every day, I post on Goggle classroom a topic named "La clase de hoy (DATE)" so you can easily find any digital content, activity or homework for the respective day. Please communicate with me or a classmate, preferably before the absence or as soon as possible You are expected to complete the missed work 1-2 days following the absence. Failure to do so will result in a missing assignment grade.
Grading:
Presentational writing and speaking: 30%
Interpretive listening and reading: 30%
Interpersonal writing and speaking (pair or groups): 30%
Homework and class performance: 10%
Students will receive up to 90% credit for late assignments. After 1 week, students will receive up to 50% credit for late assignments.
*Please communicate with me if you know you will not be able to meet a deadline.*
Academic Dishonesty:
Both the student who shares his work for an independent assignment and the person who copies will have disciplinary consequences. This applies to any assignment given in or outside of class, including homework, class work, projects, quizzes, and exams.
As per Summit High School’s language department policy, using Google Translate or any other online translation tool to complete whole assignments, i.e. translating whole sentences from English to Spanish will be considered an act of academic dishonesty. Your work must show that although you may have referenced to a dictionary for words or phrases, you did not rely entirely on it to complete the assignment.
