The Key to Homework & Classwork
In my classes, I only ask for one thing when it comes to work: GENUINE EFFORT. I love watching you try your hardest, and even when you make a spelling mistake, write a run-on sentence, or forget to include some punctuation, as long as you've put all your effort into it, I'll enjoy reading your work. If you ever feel like you need extended time on a major assignment, please see me ahead of time, and let me know why you need this extra time. I will love reading your work, helping you make it the best it can be, and seeing you grow as a writer and student.
Homework Board & Absent Work
Every week on our classroom chalkboard, the week's schedule will be posted along with daily homework. Please check this board everyday to see if anything has changed, but the week's schedule will usually stick once it's posted on the board.
If you are ever absent, please check the While You Were Out folders to see if you haven any work. If you are absent, your work will be placed in these folders at the front of the room.

Late Policy for Homework
If you missed this part on my Class Information page, here is the policy again:
Homework is usually due the day after it is assigned. If I assign a special project or paper, you will receive extra time, and you are responsible for writing down the due date in your planner. Please purchase a homework planner, or ask any of your teachers for an assignment sheet, to keep track of your homework for the week.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER ABOUT HOMEWORK IN MY CLASSROOM:
*I almost always give you time to work on homework in class, so there should be no excuse for it to be turned in late.
*If you are absent, you have two days to make up your homework. (2 days for each 1 day of excused absence.)
*There is no excuse for late work. The maximum grade earned for homework turned in one day late is 85%; the maximum grade for homework turned in two days late is 70%; the maximum grade for homework turned in three days late is 50%. Homework turned in more than three days late is a 0.
