Homework Policy
Grades aren’t here to stress you out and think you aren’t smart. They are in classrooms to show you what you have learned and accomplished.
Homework Homework and classwork assignments are the biggest part of the grade because they are both key parts that show you, the student, your accomplishments. Homework will be assigned and due the next day in class. Classwork will need to be completed in class to receive credit. If an assignment is late, you have by the end of the week to get the assignment into me for full credit. If you fail to make this deadline, you may turn in any missing assignments the day of the test for partial credit. If you will be absent for a period of time, see me and I will get you the assignments prior to your departure.
Quizzes, Test and Projects These three aspects of your grades is the summative assessment. This means you show me what you have learned over the course of a unit or a quarter. Quizzes will be given throughout a unit to have me assess your progress. Tests or projects will be assigned at the end of a unit. Before each test, we will have a review day to help you understand what will be covered and make sure you have all the materials needed to study at home. Any tests or quizzes that you missed can be retaken once we assign a new test day. Projects will have a separate grading scale and will be talked about prior to it being assigned.
Class Performance Class performance is a way for you to connect and use the language in class. “If you don’t use it, you lose it!” is a saying about learning languages. If the language is not used, you will lose the ability to speak it. While you are in class, try to use as much German as possible. It will help you become comfortable with the language and ultimately makes you a better German speaker.
