Geography Homework Policy

GRADING POLICY FOR 7th GRADE GEOGRAPHY

1.	All homework is due when called for.

2.	If a student does not have their homework at the time it is called 
for, the student will sign a work refusal paper. The student will have until 
3:30 that day to complete the assignment for partial credit. If the homework 
assignment is given at the end of the day, the work refusal will be thrown 
away. If the assignment is not turned in by 3:30 then the student will 
receive a zero for the assignment.

3.	Points are given for each graded assignment. Those points are added 
and divided by the total possible points.

A= 90%-100%

B= 80%-89%

C= 70%-79%

D= 60%-69%

F= 0%- 59%

4.	If students continue to fail to turn in homework, students and 
parents will be informed of a change in the failure to do homework. This 
could include detentions, intervention from administration or ISS( in-school 
suspension).

5.	Homework is a very important part of the success of a student in 
Geography. The failure to do homework will result in a lower grade and 
can cause the student to fail Social Studies.

6.	Keeping the agenda up to date with assignments and using class time 
and study hall time wisely will help to ensure that assignments are 
completed. Assignments can be found on PEN  channel 36, and
