Memorization: “My Papa’s Waltz”

Notes:
Mid-terms: January 17            End of second trimester: March 1
Last day for absent make-up work: February 24
Take tests within three days of returning to school after absence.
Turn in all assignments on time.
Turn in absence make-up work within three days of returning to school. Cover sheets must accompany make-up work for absences.
Read every day from books you have chosen to read outside of class.
Personal Reading requirement = One book for December from reading of your choice. In-class reading assignments (including those for Bible study or seminary) do not count as personal reading. Complete Personal Reading Record and turn in by Friday of each week.
Self-start at the beginning of class. Be seated, quiet, and working as soon as the tardy bell finishes ringing. Bring materials (including a pencil) to class every day.
Keep your participation points. Do not be tardy, use the hall pass, or disrupt class. If you use all of your participation points, you may not use the hall pass, so take care of things like restroom, drink, telephone, or office appointment needs before or after school or between classes.
Throwing items in class is disruptive, can be dangerous, and will result in calls home.
