Weekday Update

Just a quick overview of what I expect:

1. Be prepared! Always have your notebook – I expect a spiral notebook with 5 dividers. Also, always have your textbook, assignments, and anything else required for class… like pencils and pens. I only have a few for you to borrow, so please leave your ID when you borrow a pencil.
2. There will be notes given daily. This will help hone your note-taking skills for your college years. Please refrain from disrupting lecture by shouting out… but please ask questions! Just raise your hand first.
3. Homework will be collected at the beginning of the class at which it is due – please place it in the appropriate tray for your period. I will put graded work in the “out” trays – pick it up when you can. ALWAYS complete the readings – you are responsible for the material in the book AND notes.  Each unit’s homework assignment is available here and is due on the day of the test – this will be your study guide for your exam.
4. I do NOT enjoy getting late work. You will lose 10% of the overall point total for each day late, unless you have an excused absence.
5. If you need help, please come talk to me before or after class. I always have an open-door policy and am willing to help yo, but I don’t have ESP. PLEASE tell me if you need a hand.
6. ALWAYS do your best on projects, tests, and papers. This is an honors class, and my expectations are high!
