Welcome to Mrs. Moore’s Language Arts classroom! You will be diving into a world of literature and grammar!
- Come to class prepared! You will need the following materials every day you are in class:
o Writing Utensil
o Binder/trapper/notebook
o Paper
o Textbook or novel
o Extra free reading book
- Be on time. You must be inside the classroom when the bell rings. If you do not, you will be counted as tardy. 1 tardy results in warning, 2 tardies result in a one 30 minute detention.
- Absences
o If you KNOW you are going to be gone (family vacation, doctor’s appointment, school event, etc), you must get the homework assignment from me BEFORE you leave.
o If you are ill, you have two days to make up work for every day that you miss. Example: sick on Monday = work due on Thursday.
- Homework
o Homework is to due at the beginning of class
§ If an assignment is late, 25% will be taken off of the achieved score.
§ If you do not put your name on the top of your paper, points will be taken away.
§ Take pride in your work! Any work that is turned in and is illegible or otherwise unacceptable on account of neatness will be redone for late credit
- Respect
o It is expected that while you are representing Woodward-Granger Community Schools you will behave in an appropriate manner. While in my classroom, you will be expected to treat yourself, your peers, and myself in a polite and respectable manner. Disrespect will NOT be tolerated and will result in the issuing of a detention. Repeated offenses could result in being sent to the office (automatic detention) and/or parent/guardian notification.
- Hallway pass
o Each student has a passbook in his or her assignment book. Students must fill this out to leave the room. If student does not have the assignment book in class, the student will not be allowed to leave the room.
o You are expected to have a notebook or folder for your learning log. This is where you will keep DOL and DOL quizzes among many other class activities. These will be handed in weekly for points.
