Missed Assignment:
Student have to make up any missed assignments.
It is the student's responsibility to make up and
turn in missed assignments. Late homework will
be turned in a bin by my desk.
Test can be made up during class time but instructional
time will be missed. The student can come before school,
after school with parents permission to pick up student
after school, or at lunch to make up a test. Your child have
the login and password to their book.
If they need it again, they can come and ask me.
Homework grading
5.
HHomework grade is out of 50 pts every week.
The student will receive the averages of how many they did
that week over how many I have given that week.
For example:
I assigned 5 homework’s this week and the student only did
3 homework assignments, so I take 3 and divide it by 5 and
that give me the student 60% out of 100% which is equal
to 30 pts out of 50pts.
