The child must know that he is a miracle, that since the beginning of the world there hasn't been, and until the end of the world there will not be, another child like him.

Grading Procedures
Grades are based on the following:
Homework
Average 50-100 points each
Class Points
Your grade is based on total points that you earn in my class. I do not assign a letter grade until grades are due at the end of the quarter or semester. You will be able to have the benefit of every point you earn.
The most important thing you can do to earn a good grade is to be sure all assignments are completed and turned in on time.

Make-up Work
- You are responsible for getting your make-up work. Please do not ask for homework after the bell has range, there is a folder with all make up work at the front of the room.
- Homework is to be made up within 2 days after an excused absence.
- If you are absent the day of a lab you have 1 week from the day of the lab to make up the assignment
- If you are absent the class period before a test, you are still required to take the test on the scheduled day. Tests are announced well enough in advance that you should be able to be prepared.
- If you are absent the day of a test, you will be responsible for scheduling a time for making up the test within 2 days of the absence all tests will be in the library for you to complete on your own time.
- Remember that it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to get and complete your make-up work within 2 days of the absence.
