How do I make up a vocabulary quiz?

If you miss a vocab quiz and it is an EXCUSED absence:
-Type original sentences using each of the week's vocab words (10 total).
-Staple a "Vocab Make-up Cover Sheet" on top and fill it out.
-Put it in the make up work folder.
*There is only ONE make-up allowed per 6 weeks, unless an emergency situation
arises and I am contacted by your parent/guardian*

How soon do I need to make up work?

--Large, long-term essays/projects (due dates more than 2 weeks in advance):
there is no make-up. Have someone bring it in on the due date for you. They
can put it in my box.
--Regular work: You have the number of days absent to make it up (2 days gone,
2 days to turn in work).
