Notebook Project: (10% of quarter grade). Each student will be required to keep the class notes in the Spanish binder. The binder will be collected and checked each quarter. Please don’t give me a notebook with papers that are all jumbled up and out of order. I will hand it back to you and you will have I day to fix it up.
Class notes will only be accepted one day late and will receive a 10-point penalty.

Homework (20% of quarter grade).Missing homework policy: 1st missing homework = ten points will be deducted (out of 100 points). All subsequent missing homework = grade zero and 7:15 am detention. When students are absent, they will have a number of days to make up homework equal to the length of the absence. The study partner is responsible for taking assignments and handouts for his absent partner.

Dictados (15% of quarter grade). Dictados will consist of new vocabulary to test spelling and listening comprehension. Students must learn to spell each word correctly as well as give its English meaning.
