Syllabus for French II--2013-14
French II—Syllabus Mrs. Corson—Room 116 2013-2014 School Year
I. Be prepared daily:
A. always bring a pencil, you may bring a pen in addition if you like
B. always bring your textbook, Bien Dit!
C. always bring either a 3-ring binder with a supply of notebook
paper OR you may use a spiral notebook that has pockets for
handouts
D. absolutely no dipping, chewing or eating during class
(unless we’re eating as part of our class that day)
E. language classes are not spectator sports so be prepared to participate daily
II. Grading:
A. The following scale will be used: A (95-100); A- (90-94); B+ (87-89);
B (83-86); B- (80-82); C+ (77-79); C (73-76); C- (70-72); D+ (67-69);
D (63-66); D- (60-62); F (Below 60)
B. Grading is based on the total points available throughout the year. Those points
are from tests, quizzes, conversations, projects and homework assignments.
C. Late work:
Assignments are due at the beginning of class. Since homework is typically checked in
class, there is NO LATE WORK!
Note: If you are in the building the day that an assignment is due, it is due that
day even if you are excused from this class. In other words, turn in your work
before you leave for an activity, sports event, appointment or any other reason for
leaving school.
D. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Homework is assigned for practice and
copying someone else's does not help YOU! Dishonesty on a test or quiz will potentially
earn you a zero.
E. Attendance: After an excused absence, you have the same number of days to make up
missed work, including tests. Makeup exams will be taken before or after school
instead of during class, and they may be different from the exams taken by the rest
of the class.
F. Behavior: Students are expected to treat school property, each other and each other’s
property with respect.
