Class Rules

Students are expected to:

Be respectful	Raise their hand to speak
Remain seated during instruction	Come to class prepared
Turn in all assignments in a timely manner

Classwork and Homework Policies

All assignments are due on the given date. Late work will be accepted, but a 15% deduction will be added making a “B” the highest grade possible.
If a student is absent, they are responsible for asking for and completing all missed assignments. Students will have the number of days absent plus one to make up all missing work.
Homework and Classwork will be copied daily into the student planners. Please be sure to check your child’s planner each night.

Class Projects

There will be at least one major project per nine weeks. These projects require the students to research and make a model of a given topic. They will then present their projects to the class. These projects will be completed at home and will have to do with the unit we are currently studying. An outline of expectations will be sent home once the projects are explained in class.
