My
Goals
It
is my goal to adhere to a high standard of excellence
for
your child and hope that we can build a partnership
that
serves to raise them to their highest potential.
Please
take a moment to review the grading scale,classroom
expectations
and assignment due dates to find out what
we will be doing
in Reading/Language Arts throughout the
school year.
Grading Policies
Work is assigned
each week on Monday and is due to be turned in to work folders every Friday. Students receive their work from the
previous week with the credit earned on it when they place the new work in their folders. We generally have a set routine
of start up work each day and I walk through and give effort credit as I see them doing the work. Homework is turned in to
folders at the end of the week. Most homework assignments are 20pts with the exception of major projects and bigger assignments
that take more time and effort to complete. The daily and routine work will generally look like this:
