Foreign Language is now
considered a CORE class
in Texas. How does this
effect my child? There is
no longer a “minimum
plan”. If you child wants
to graduate, they will
need to complete 2
years of a foreign
language. Don’t let them
fall behind!

Notebooks will be graded
at the end of the 6 weeks.
Students will be graded
based on organization of
their binder. Students will
be given time at the end of
class to put papers in
their notebooks. I will be
helping them everyday by
showing them how I expect
their notebooks to be set
up. This is a test grade and
should be an easy 100 !

TUTORIALS

calendar so I know they are coming.
Make up Work
READING DAYS
Students will have 2 classes a 6 weeks
In which they will spend the class
Reading a novel with deaf characters.
What’s the purpose? To expose students
to some of the differences between
hearing and deaf cultures.
How students are graded
Reading notes – taken each
Time students have reading day
Voice Off Grade – Students must
Remain voice off on reading days.
If they talk, sleep, play on their
phone, or work on something else
they will lose points.
Book Report – This will be due at
The end of each semester. This is
Not an AP English book report, it
Is more like an elementary school
Book report. Very doable! This is
Also a test grade.
“Everyone is a genius.
But if you judge a fish by
its ability to climb a tree, it
will live its whole life
believing it is stupid.” –
Albert Einstein
All assignments for the 6 weeks will be on
the class calendar given to the students at
the beginning of each 6 weeks. A copy can
also be found on my website under “class
handouts”.
If your child is absent…..
1.
2.
3.
4.
Students can make up assignments during
tutorial times or on reading days. If the
assignment permits, I can also upload the
video to my website. However, most videos
do not allow me to do this because of copy
right laws.
Students have until a specific deadline
before the 6 weeks is complete to turn in all
daily work. After that time, the assignment
will be a 0.
If your student misses a test, there will be 2
specific make up days that they must go to
in order to make it up. Student may also
retake tests for full credit if they are not
satisfied with their original grade.
Late work/Absent work will be entered into
the gradebook as a 0 until the assignment is
turned it. This does not mean it will stay that
way, but I want them to see what the
consequences will be if it is not turned in.
IF your child does not have their project the
day it’s due…
1.
2.
3.
A late project will only be accepted for half
credit the next class (50%).
If the student doesn’t have the project the
following class, it will once again have ½ the
credit taken off (25%).
After the 3rd day it is not in class, the
student’s project will then not be accepted
and be entered as a 0 in the gradebook.
