My Expectations for Homework Work to be completed on time – 4 points each assignment Homework will be checked for completion – not for accuracy Nobody is Perfect – Homework is where you are allowed to make mistakes without consequences to your grade Absent students have a few days to make-up missing work Incomplete homework will receive half-credit if completed that same day or the next day
