1. Find out the assignment:
a. Call a Study Buddy (at the start of the school year your student should exchange phone numbers with at least two students per class); or b. Look up the assignment in Zangle ParentConnect (Parent needs to login with parent PIN/ Password.*) 2. Obtain any missed handouts: a. Prearrange with a Study Buddy that if either of you is absent, the other should pick up an extra set of handouts from the teacher; then you and your parent should arrange (with the family that picked up) for FAXing or pickup of the handouts; or b. Check teacher's Science folder for make-up work. Then get worksheets from the make-up boxes in the front of the room. 3. Get any explanation you need: As a Study Buddy for instructions or ask teacher after class. District policy stipulates that a student has as many days as he/she was absent to make up missed work. However, it is desirable that as much work as possible be done during one's absence. |
Homework can be turned in one day late for half credit. Projects lose 10% of the grade per day late.
