Frequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
How does the student know when assignments are due?
At the front of the classroom, there is a column marked "Homework" beside the column marked "Materials Needed" and "Daily Agenda". Students can write the assignments and their due dates for the week and the future in their assignment notebook. The assignment and due date will be posted until the due date. Students can also access my webpage under "Homework" or "Other Assignment". The homework and any other assignment can be viewed or downloaded and printed out from these links. Students can also view the "Weekly Agenda" from my web page.Back to Top

Can there be more time given to the students to study reviews before the test?
I will hand-out a study guide for Science Test at least 3 nights before the test. If the student forgets the Study Guide/Review, one can be downloaded and printed from my web page from "Other Assignments". Also, the students can write test dates from the "Homework" column and also check "Weekly Assignments" on my web page for test schedules.Back to Top

Can the students take a retest for low test grades?
The students can retest for low grades but will be done during recess time, not during class time. The Science Curriculum is still being taught and everyday is important, so I don't think it is in the students' best interest to lose class time to improve test scores. They usually have 3 to 5 day to study the reviews. The reviews are extremely comprehensive covering all information that will be tested. They have their notes/graphic organizer/scienc journals and textbooks to use while studying.Back to Top
