When is tutoring?
by appointment.
What is the late work policy?
Ten (10) points will be subtracted per actual day (not class day) up to 50
points. No late work is accepted after two weeks from the due date, unless
it is the end of the 6 weeks. It is your responsibility to put late work in
the late work folder.
What is the best way to get in touch with you?
The fastest way is to email me at Jennifer_Johnston@roundrockisd.org.
I will usually reply within a day.
You may also call me at , and I will return your call within 2 days.
How are grades calculated?
English II -
Daily grades (homework, participation, etc.) are worth 50%
Minor grades (quizzes, etc.) are worth 25%
Project or Test grade (usually one per six weeks) is worth 25%
When will grades be posted on line?
I try to post grades every Monday. Keep in mind that projects, essays and
tests take a bit more time to grade.
What is covered in your class?
Book possibilities for sophomores are from the following list: Anthem
by Ayn Rand, 1984 by George Orwell, Fahrenheit 451 by Ray
Bradbury, A place where the sea remembers by Sandra Benitez,
Night by Elie Wiesel, Of Mice and Men by John Stienbeck. The
class will also use various short stories, fiction and non-fiction excerpts,
film clips and poetry in our study of literature.
