All students in reading classes receive a gold Overview sheet each quarter with my grading policy, assignments, test information and extra credit opportunities. I will give you a blue assignment sheet so that you may record all assignments and grades. I also distibute frequent handouts that explain procedures and assignments in detail. All notes and class handouts should be kept in the reading section of your binder. Agendas are printed up weekly so you can always see what we have done each day. You are responsible for any make-up work after an absence, so be aware of my class routines. I will always be available for help and to answer questions. Feel free to email me as well.
All poetry students received an information letter at the beginnning of the semester, as well as a blue assignment sheet for recording assignments and grades. In addition, a table of contents detailing the information, notes, and handouts to be maintained in the Poetry Notebook is distributed at the beginning of the semester. Please be familiar with the information on those pages, as well as in the previous paragraph regarding agendas and make-up work. Separate handouts will be distributed for projects. Feel free to email me or come by my room for clarification or help. This is a very demanding class, but it is also a very rewarding one. You will be proud of what you accomplish this semester. So will I!!
