Homework will be assigned every day. It must be completed, neat lest and

submitted on time. Homework must be done in black or blue pen only

(corrected with red ink). All homework will be stamped or sign, at the beginning of

the class and you will correct it in order to receive full credit.

No late homework will be permitted.

You will have as many days as you were absent to turn-in missed homework during that absence. That is, if you were absent 1day, then you will have 1 day to turn in your assignment and so on. Homework assignments will be written at the right side of the board, and it is your responsibility to take note of it every day, and to understand it clearly. If you are not clear about the homework assignment, it is also your responsibility to get a clarification, either from your teacher or from

others students. It is recommended that you keep a telephone number of at least one

other student, in the event that you may miss a class. No excuses of any

kind will be accepted for not completing your homework. If all the homework and

is 100% complete, after twelve weeks then the student will receive 2 homework

passes.

TESTS/QUIZZES:

There will be a quiz, at least once a week, for about 15-20 minutes. There

will be no make-up quizzes, but at the end of the quarter, the lowest quiz

grade shall be dropped. There will be a test at the end of each chapter

unit. If the student is absent for the test, he/she is responsible for

making arrangements with the teacher immediately after his/her return to

classes, for a make-up test.

NOTEBOOKS:

All students must have a notebook with them at all times. It is important to take notes in every class. Notebooks will be checked at any time; a grade will be given at the end of the semester this grade will be as class work. I will grade organization, notes, content neatness and creativity.

PARTICIPATION:

Participation is very important in the learning of a language and it shows

student's interest in the class and behavior (disciple[line). I will evaluate

student's participation with a grade in the class work category.

CLASSROOM RULES: (I will fallow stated rules in Lancer Life)

All students are expected to:

1. Come to class on time. Standing outside, the door and rushing in after

the bell has begun to ring will constitute a tardy. You must be INSIDE the

door when it begins ringing to be counted on time.

2. Begin the start up activity within 1 minute after the tardy bell.

Directions will be on the projection screen or the board. Please do not wait

for me to remind you to begin since I need to take roll and attend to other

duties.

3. Attend to personal needs before coming to class. I have been

instructed not to give passes to lockers and to limit them. So please do not

ask for a pass unless you have a true emergency.

4. Remain in your assigned seat unless you ask permission to get up.

Throw trash away at the end of the period on your way out.

5. Do not eat candy or other food in class unless you have been given

special permission. Chewing gum is prohibited, fine of $2.00 will be

charged.

6. Bring required materials every day unless you are otherwise

directed. Respect the property and rights of others. Always have your own supplies.

Sharing books/supplies will not be allowed in class.

7. Talk only when permitted.

8. Use polite speech and body language. Unkind teasing and impolite behavior is unacceptable.

9. Do not cheat. Students caught cheating will receive full consequences

as per Lancer Life.

10. Follow the teacher’s directions always.

11. Do not write or read any material, other than Spanish, while in

class is taken place. Any other subject material found in the student's desk shall be

confiscated and it will be given to the Dean.

action, such as detention, referral to the Dean, contacting a parent, etc.
