ASSIGNMENTS AND DAILY WORK

1. Use a proper heading on all assignments - see example below:

Subject Name

° Page #/Lesson Date 2. Leave a margin on both sides and at the bottom of your page. The holes

are on the left side. Do not tear pages out of binders or spiral notebooks.

3. Fill out the Student Planner for each day and do your very best work.

4. Turn your assignments into the boxes when you are finished unless the

teacher instructs you to do otherwise.

5. Unfinished class papers may be completed at recess or lunch, or on some

occasions taken home for homework.

6. All homework is due the following day unless instructed otherwise.7. We expect all work to be turned in on time; LATE PAPERS (unless absent)

WILL NOT RECEIVE FULL CREDIT

8. LATE WORK will only be accepted for up to 2 weeks after the assignment

was due.

FREE TIME

1. You will have free time when you have carefully finished all of your

work. Be sure to check your work before starting a free time activity.

2. Free time is independent time. Independent activities include: reading,

writing, studying for test, extra credit papers or drawing.

3. Free time must be used in a way that does not distract or disturb

others.

HOMEWORK

1. Assigned homework is always due the next day unless you are told

otherwise.

2. The due dates for long term assignments, such as reports or projects

should be noted so they will be finished on time.3. If there are any special circumstances which cause you to miss an

assignment, a note from your parents is acceptable, and the work will

be treated as an absent assignment.  

4. Homework should usually take ~ 45 minutes . If you are spending

more than 1 hour, every night, you need to talk to your teacher about

the work and your use of time.

ILLNESS AND MAKE-UP WORK

1. Please stay home if you are sick. Germs spread quickly in a class.

2. Bring a note for the office when you return to school.

3. See the absent folder for your work. Check with the teacher.

4. Work missed during an absence must be made up as soon as possible

after you return to school. If absent more than 2-3 days, see the

teacher to schedule due dates.

5. In an extended absence of 3 or more days, have your parents call the

office for make-up work and assignments.

6. Label absent work "absent" at the top so it is not confused with

"late" papers.

I understand the items in this manual and will do my best to follow them.
