4. student-parent-teacher conference

When you come to class:
•	Bring supplies to class
•	Write down the agenda for the day -if you were absent the previous 
day, you still have to fill out the agenda-You will have an agenda quiz 
every 3 weeks !&#9786;
•	Homework is due when it is asked for at the beginning of the period-
turning the homework in during the same class period or by the end of the 
day is considered late – turning in late homework ( up to the following 
class period) will receive a maximum grade of 50. No credit will be given to 
assignments that are more than one class late.

all those involved- an excuse of he/she took it from me will not be accepted-
keep all work from eyes and hands of other students

extra credit at the end of the six weeks to boost your grades.  Your effort 
for this course is evaluated continuously throughout the semester.  You will 
not be given extra credit to pass the class based on a single project.
•	Tracking your grades- you are responsible for keeping track of your 
assignments and grades using you assignment log- proof is required when 
there is a discrepancy between your assignment log and my gradebook.  
Without proof, the grades in my gradebook will be final.

Tips on Learning a Foreign Language

•	Not only is it memorizing grammar rules and vocabulary, it is 
practice!– we don’t only have to understand the ideas and concepts but also 
make ourselves become accustomed to using what we are presented by speaking, 
listening, writing, and reading in Spanish
•	Don’t only use your visual memory, make your mouth or hand do what 
your mind is learning!-study out loud, study with a friend (to involve 
yourself in speaking and listening); try to write sentences or a short 
paragraph using the skills you have practiced orally.
•	Study everyday-we don’t get by in a foreign language course by 
cramming in at the last minute, or trying to do your best the last week of 
the six weeks
•	Review “old topics” and “old vocabulary”- language learning is 
cumulative-we have to recycle  and build on “old” skills
•	Don’t be afraid to make mistakes!
