Language Arts and Reading Classes
6th Grade

Class Rules, Grading, and Policies -
*All assignments are due the day after they are assigned for daily assignments. Assignments are not taken late for half credit-unless the student is absent when the work is collected or checked. If the student is present, the work must be completed and turned in in order to get full credit.
*Tests/projects- a rubric or study guide will be given prior to the test or project.
*All absent work will be given to the student upon their return. Students have as many days as they are absent to complete the missed work. Any work not completed will turn into no credit.
*Projects not turned in the day they are due will be dropped an entire letter grade for each day they are late, but students may still turn in projects late for lesser points.
*I do not take late homework assignments; unless the student is absent the day the work is assigned
*All tests, quizzes, and projects must be signed and returned. This will count as a hw grade.
