Will we have homework every night?

The only thing I can say about homework is that sometimes you 
will have homework and sometimes you will not, much will depend 
on what we get through in class.

Where can I find out what I missed if I was absent?

Check the assignment page for your class.  It gives a brief 
description of what we did that day and list any page numbers or 
assignments given from your textbook. You may also want to check 
the class calendar for additional information.

What if I missed an assignment from the previous week?

Check the class archives link...it has a list of everything we 
have done since the first day of the quarter.  This link will be 
reset each quarter.

What do I do with my handouts and notes from the novel and/or classwork?

Keep your handouts and all notes you take on the novel and/or 
classwork in your binders.  This information will make up your 
study guide when it is time to take the test. Remember, I do not 
provide study guides.

I was absent the day you passed out the handouts how do I get them?

You need to check and see if any handouts were passed out the day 
you come back, DO NOT wait until the day we review the 
information.  First check the Handout Folder link, the handout 
you are looking for may be there.  If not, check the back table 
in the classroom or come and see me.  If you wait until the day 
we are covering the notes, you run the risk of the handouts 
being gone as students who lose or misplace their handouts have 
the opportunity to have handouts on the day that we review the 
notes.

What if my absence was due to a school function/field trip?

This is not an excuse not to have your completed assignment when 
you return or before you leave. School functions are announced in 
advance; you need to see me before you leave to find out what you 
will be missing, and have it with you when you return.  If a test 
is scheduled you need to be prepared to take it when you return.

What if my assignment is not finished by the due date?

You are given plenty of time to complete all assignments.  If 
your assignment is not going to be completed by the due date you 
need to come and speak with me one on one to see if you can get 
an extension. Please come and see me BEFORE the assignment is due 
to talk about the extension.
