Classroom Information & Expectations

Supplies and Expectations:

Spanish IV, AP Spanish and Honors students will need a large spiral notebook that is used ONLY for Spanish and a binder.

All students will be expected to bring their Chromebook, a pencil, highlighter/marker, EXPO markers, and their Spanish notebook to class every day. Students will use each of these materials to create an individual, irreplaceable resource for learning and using Spanish.

I recommend that the student also have a Spanish English dictionary.

It is not acceptable to eat breakfast or lunch during class time.

Students must check the SAVVAS and CANVAS virtual platforms to confirm that they have completed their daily assignments.

Grading Information:

Learning Spanish requires students to commit to participating in class. Without daily participation, additional languages cannot be learned. As a result, students will receive daily in class assignment grades, as well as a participation grade for attempting to utilize the language during class time.

Late work:

An assignment is considered late when a student is NOT absent on the due date of an assignment but fails to turn in the assignment on the due date. The following guidelines will be invoked when a student turns in a late assignment.

A student cannot correct late work for an enhanced grade.
Late work will only be accepted up to 3 days after the assignment was initially due.
If an assignment is not turned in after the 3rd day, this will be considered a student discipline concern and will be handled as such.
Each day an assignment is late, ten points will be deducted from the overall grade.

o Day 1 Late – highest grade a student can earn is 90%.

o Day 2 Late - highest grade a student can earn is 80%.

o Day 3 Late - highest grade a student can earn is 70%.
