4. PASSES – You must go to the restroom during passing period. You will need your agenda to leave the classroom at all times. Save your passes for real emergencies.
5. DIGITAL DEVICES – Cell phones, I pods, etc. must be turned off & out of sight in the halls and classroom. First offense will receive a warning. Any time after that the device will be confiscated and sent to the office. NO EXCEPTIONS!
6. GUM & CANDY - Having something in your mouth interferes and affects the practice of a foreign language. Neither gum nor candy or food will be allowed in class at any time (even when you are just doing written work.)
7. DAILY WORK & COMPLETION ASSIGNMENTS - You will be expected to participate in oral and written assignments. Any unfinished assignment (workbook pages) must be taken home for completion unless you’re instructed otherwise. If you are talking, sleeping or wasting time in any way you will lose the privilege of having extra time at home to complete it. Since plenty class time is given to work on these assignments, a zero will be given for any assignment page that is blank or partially done due to time purposely wasted. No uncorrected or partial work will be accepted. Correction must be with a red pen to receive credit.
8. HOMEWORK – Daily study is required to enjoy success in the study of a foreign language. Plan to study your notes or vocabulary every day. Any homework worksheet must be turned by deadline. Late work will be DETRIMENTAL to your success.
9. MAKE-UP-WORK -If you have an excused absence, you must check the assignment sheet & appropriate basket to get missed work. You must turn in the work within three days if the work was assigned on the day of absence. Previously announced material will NOT be moved to a later date. You will NOT be allowed to make up work from an unexcused absence.
10. BINDER & SPIRAL -. You will need five dividers. Use the portfolio set-up sheet to organize binder. Place all completed & graded assignments in them daily to maintain organization. It will be checked periodically and will count as a MAJOR GRADE at least once a year. You must take & copy notes in your spiral always. Label all notes with a heading and a number and add this to your table of contents in the front of the spiral
11. TESTS & QUIZZES - Every time a lesson or unit is finished you will be assessed with a quiz, test or project (always announced in advance). You will always need your #2 pencil for tests. Failed tests can be retaken within 3days for a grade no higher than a 70 (must make prior arrangements).
COURSE OBJECTIVES*Students will become familiar with the culture and geography of the Spanish-speaking world. *Students will speak, read, and write in Spanish on a simple to advanced level using correct grammar. *Students will prepare themselves for real world experiences using Spanish (mainly through the use of projects, songs, poems and tongue twisters that promote speaking proficiency).
