7th Grade Reading
Description: Students will experience many types of reading, writing, and
listening activities in the classroom.
Goals:
*Apply strategies and skills to read, understand, interpret and evaluate a
wide
range of texts.
*Read a variety of literature and interact with media and technology to gain
knowledge.
Expectations:
*Students are expected to follow the Guiding Principles of respect, honesty,
responsibility and trustworthiness.
*Students are expected to be on time and prepared for class.
*Students are responsible for recording their assignments and turning their
homework in on time.
Evaluation:
* Students will be graded on daily work, participation, quizzes, tests and
projects.
Students will have some class time to work on their assignments. Typically,
an assignment is due the next day. The amount of homework varies with what we
are working on, so I suggest that students use a planner to help them stay
organized.
Makeup Work:
It is the student’s responsibility to find out what is missed in class when
he/she is absent (check Teacher Web). For every absence, the student will
receive three days to make up work and turn it in. If a test or quiz is
missed, a time will be scheduled between the student and teacher.
