• Pencil Pouch (2 pencils, highlighter, scissors, crayons, red pen)

Assignments:

• Tests and assignments can be corrected to a maximum grade of 70.  Work must be corrected to receive the 70, if not corrected, grade remains as originally earned.  There will be a special tab in the binder where work to redo will be kept.
• Late work will have a 5 point a day deduction, up to 20 points.
• Work not turned in will result in a zero .  
  

Homework:

• Will be checked in class.

• Check Parent Portal for daily averages and any missing assignments or grades below a 70.

• Your child’s teacher may make a comment on your child’s agenda calendar when he/she is having difficulty completing homework/assignments and/or following classroom and school-wide rules.  More than 4 comments in a 9-week grading period may result in loss of participation in patrols or other leadership positions.  In addition the final 9-week conduct grade will be affected.
