Classroom Policies:

 

Classroom Rules / Expectations: The classroom expectation is to aim for the Target Behaviors of being tolerant, open, appropriate, direct, respectful, accepting, positive and prepared.  Digressions will be followed with reminders or conversations with the teacher. 

 

Attendance / Absences / Tardiness: Daily participation points will be given on your use of time and use of spoken French (not correctness, but staying in the language) during class.  One point per day will be given for arriving to class on time and staying in class the entire time.  This point can be made up by staying after class one minute and speaking to me in French.  Another 5 points are earned per week by the following rating:

      5: You speak only French while you are in the classroom.

     4: You speak a good amount of French

          3: You speak a fair amount of French but still some English

            2: You speak a fair amount of English but still some French

            1: You speak very little French

            0: I did not witness you speak French

 

Make-up Work / Late Work: Daily writing assignments sometimes will be graded, and sometimes not.  There will be no credit given for late workbook assignments because we go over those together at the beginning of class each day.  Late compositions will be accepted for a reduced letter grade for each day it is late.  Late work should not be completed during class.  Make-up work is the student’s responsibility.  A classmate can help you be aware of all homework.  When you are gone for a day or so on pre-excused absences or gone for athletic events, etc., you must get work ahead of time and you are responsible for it immediately upon your return (Quizzes and tests also are taken before or on the same day as the class.).  Work missed during unexcused absences will receive no points.

France Student Travel Experience

Offered every other spring: 2004, 2006, 2008, etc.

The trip includes a 6 day family stay where you must communicate entirely in the French language. This will maximize enjoyment and

participation. This activity includes:

- independent study about the country

- a 15 day schedule

- keeping a daily journal of experiences

- making a commitment to speak French during the entire

period.

This is a valuable communicative experience for growth and

reflection where you will not be a tourist but an active

participant in the culture. Students should contact the French

teacher about applying. BON VOYAGE!!
