Reminders:
1. These are a few reminders concerning homework and
classwork:
A. All work must be completed in
blue or black ink (other colors will not be accepted).
B. If the assignment states
that looseleaf is to be used, no other types of
paper will
be accepted (paper ripped out of notebooks or legal pads is unacceptable.
C. Homework must be handed
in on the day due, unless I receive a note
from a parent explaining why you did
not complete your HW.
This will only be accepted if there
is an emergency at home or you were sick.
D.
Homework and classwork must be neat. Work that is sloppy or illegible will not
be accepted.
Remember that
homework and classwork count as a grade!
