| I take attendance daily. The class
grade is negatively affected after two absences. Since late arrivals
are disruptive, please make every effort to arrive a few minutes early.
In this two-hour format, missing one day is really the equivalent of missing
two one-hour classes! In language classes attendance is critical
since the material builds on earlier lessons. It is extremely difficult
to "catch-up" in a language class.
If you are absent, it is your responsibility to go to the website WWW.Drlemon.net, and check the Tarea [Homework] and Horario [class material] pages. Otherwise, contact a classmate and find out what we did and any assignments or announcements |
Grading Policy
I will be evaluating laboratory attendance,
the lab manual and workbook chapters, other homework and class assignments,
performance on tests and quizzes, partner and group tasks, attendance (incl.
arriving and leaving on time), being prepared for class and active use
of Spanish in class.
A = 100-90% B = 89-80% C = 79=70% D = 69=60% F = 59-0% |
| Half of your grade (50%) is based on attendance, class participation, homework, laboratory attendance. Doing well on this half of your grades will help you to do well on the other (exams) half. |
