How Can I Pass This Class?
- Attend class every day
- Ask questions- I will assume if you don't ask any questions, that you understand everything.
- READ the syllabus, highlight it and put important information in your calendar/ agenda- you will be treated like an adult....and held accountable for the information I give you.
- Turn in work on time. If you are out, you have one week to see me and make up any missing work. After 1 week, it becomes a ZERO.
- Know that I DO NOT offer extra credit.
- Remember that quizzes, tests and essays impact your grade THE MOST.
Grading Policy
