Homework expectations and upcoming quizzes

Buenas tardes a todos, (Good afternoon everyone)

Just a reminder that ordinarily there is homework Monday through Thursday with none during the weekend, unless of course there is a project. Most of the homework is given in packet form with 4 or 5 pages in a packet. I find that this saves time for everyone in class and the students need to become more responsible for holding on to their work. Losing a packet is not in anyone's best interest.

There will be a quiz on Tuesday of next week on our notes in section 2 of the notebook . In our book, we are still in chapter 1 and the quiz will be on the material covered from pages 6 to 17. We practice the expressions almost everyday, so that the students should be very familiar with the material if they pay attention, participate, and do their homework.

I do stay after school 2 or 3 times per week, usually Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (late bus on Thursday) unless I have other commitments.  I announce when I am available for make-ups or extra help at the beginning of the week. If you are having trouble, please stay. People who continually avoid homework will be asked to stay to make it up. I will be calling home if it is a chronic problem. Gracias!
