10. How Our Class Will Behave
Honestly! This means you complete your own work, keep it yourself, and let me know if you see something dishonest happening.

Punctually! You don’t want to miss out of any of the interesting, fun things we will be doing. Plus, tardiness is disrespectful and we already talked about that…

Excused absences have an extension equal to the number of days absent.
Late work – turn in the next day for ½ credit, after that no points will be allowed. 
It is YOUR responsibility to get your make-up work! It will be in the absent folder with a make-up buddy sheet
