If you keep up with your daily work, participate in class and spend time each day reviewing your work, you should have no difficulty with the tests. If you are absent on the day we have a test, you are expected to make it up the day you return unless it was a prolonged absence. These make-up tests will be taken outside of class time, so you will need to come in before of after school. If you need extra help anytime, be sure to ask for help. Do not be discouraged and give up if something appears to be a bit difficult. You are welcome to come in after school if you want to catch up on missed work, get extra help or discuss your grade. Be sure to let me know when you are coming in to see me, and I will do my best to help you out. Class Expectations Class Expectations and Rules: I expect you to treat others the way you want to be treated. Literature teaches us how to improve ourselves constantly, and writing gives us the opportunity to express ourselves. The best learning is achieved in a comfortable environment. We are different and no one is perfect. Keep an open mind. You will encounter many ideas that are different from yours. These ideas may not be bad or wrong just different. We all should work together to improve ourselves, after all this is our class. We make of it what we choose. The following rules are to ensure that student conduct is in alignment with the before mentioned expectations. If not, student reprimand will be ensued. I have zero tolerance for disrespect of any kind. - Cell phones are NOT permitted to be on and will be placed in the box by my desk.
- Cheating and plagiarism are serious offenses.
- Defacing of school property or anyone else’s will not be tolerated.
- My desk and anything on it or belonging to me is strictly off limits—no one is ever allowed behind my desk without permission!!!
- The computers are off limits unless given permission by me.
- Restroom breaks are to happen before class not during my instruction time.
