Remember, it is very important that you always come to class prepared and ready to learn. =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= HOMEWORK POLICY It is important for students to develop a sense of responsibility and remembering to do and bring their homework in on time is one way to accomplish this. I follow the homework policy outlined in the Student Handbook - so please read and review the handbook when it is sent home. To receive full credit on their assignments, students need to bring all homework in completed and on time. Late or missing homework that does not come in with a note from their parent(s) or guardian(s) or is the result of an absence will not receive credit. MATERIALS FOR MY CLASS Materials you need for Ms. Ventricelli's class * 3 Ring Binder (2 or 2 1/2 inch binder is the best for my class) * (Optional: You may want to keep your POD's - "Problem of the Day" in a spiral notebook instead of your binder) Spiral notebook with 3 holes - not too thick - just in case you want to store it in your binder. * Pens: I allow you to use gel pens for note taking and homework, but your tests/quizzes must be done in blue or black pen for full credit. Notebook set-up 3-Ring Binder Set-Up * Dividers (3)-Should be labeled: Chapter Work, Skills, and Notes (put blank paper in your notes section. * You can also use spiral notebooks for your notes and POD. If this is the way you would like to set up your notebook, you will only need two dividers labeled Chapter Work and Skills. =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^=
