Expectations for Music:
Enter the room quietly
Do your best
Allow others to do their best
Work as a team
Exit the room quietly
Grades
At the end of each music class, I'll go over these expectations and ask the students to self-evaluate on whether or not they attained all 5 points. They will receive 5 points each time, if they meet their expectations. If they do not meet expectations, they will be marked down. They can be marked down for failing to meet any of the 5 expectations for music. These 5 points are based on participation and effort. Other grades may come in the form of worksheets or assessments done in class. The students will be given ample warning and all of these grades will be done in class. I will not assign anything outside of class.
The letter grades the children earn are based on the grading scale percentages that have been established in TSC Policy 5412:
(A= 90%-100%) (B= 80%-89%) (C= 70%-79%) (D= 60%-69%) (F= 59% & Below)
Program
Kindergarten and 1st Grade at Mintonye Elementary do a Christmas/Holiday program during December. Dates and times will be sent home in the future.
