FAQ

Q: What do I need to do in your class to pass?


A: Come to class. Participate in discussions. Read your assigned reading. Study your vocabulary words. Be an active learner.


Q: If I forget to turn in a project or homework, can I turn it in late for partial credit?


A: Yes! Always turn it in! Late is better than never. For most assignments you will loose 5 points each day it is late. A 95 or 90 or 85 or 80 is better than a 0!

Q: Have you always liked reading (almost all of my students ask me this)?


A: No, not at all! I remember arguing with my mom and crying because I was so mad that I had to read Island of the Blue Dolphins in the fourth grade for summer reading. It was miserable! I had to learn what types of genres I liked to read. After I read the first Harry Potter book the following year, I was hooked and have loved reading ever since. Don't give up! There is a book out their for you! Let me help you find it!
