Remember if you would like to speak with me about anything please email me 
to set up an appointment.  I have meetings after school on most days.  The 
end of the day is very hectic getting the kids ready to go home, so it 
is difficult meeting with parents and students at the end of the day with no 
set time.  Also, an appointment helps me get better prepared with any 
appropriate materials.  If you call my voicemail I most likely will not get 
it for some time, so better to email me. Thank you for your understanding!

Common Questions regarding grades:

Q:  Why is my child's score so low?

A:  It is still early in the trimester, so the amount of assignments entered 
are very few still in some subject areas (math, social studies).  The more 
grades entered the better chance your child's grade will raise.

A:  Your child may be scoring less than 75% on their schoolwork.  All year 
they have had the chance to correct and return ANY assignment for a score of 
75%.  I pass back papers every Friday, so if you have not seen any corrected 
papers then you need to question your child as to where those assignments 
are.

Q:  My child said they turned that assignment in, so why does it say it is 
missing?

A:  Starting second trimester I began throwing away no name papers.  This is 
still a problem in this class.  Even though before each assignment I tell 
them that the first thing they need to do is write their name on their 
paper.

Q:  My child is missing vocabulary and/or spelling assignments, so where can 
they get the words to complete the assignment again?

A:  I have a master list of all the vocabulary and spelling words in the 
classroom for them to get these from.  It has been communicated with them 
all year where these words are available for them, and that they are 
responsible for getting these on their own.

Q:  How long does my child have to turn these missing assignments in?

A:  I have communicated with the class when all missing assignments are due. 
When I post the missing assignment in the grade book I am going to give them 
two weeks before I change the missing assignment to a zero.  If it is a zero 
than it is too late to turn in the make up work.

I hope that these have answered your questions.  If not you can email me at 
my school email address, and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks again!
