Make up work By New Teacher
|
|
When my kids miss a day, I get all their work together. With their assignments, I put a reminder that they have 3 days from when they return to hand in all work and take all tests. I do not remind them again to turn in the| work or take the test. (To remind myself they need to make up a test, I will put a copy of it in the "Make Up" folder on my desk.) If they do not turn in the work or take the test by the third day, I will call their parents and give a one day extension. If they don't finish they work by the fourth day, they get a 0 on it. I will give them more than 3 days for long illnesses or a death | | in the family. It is their responsibility to remember and my students do an awesome job! I taught second grade and it worked remarkably well this year. I had only one student the whole year to get a 0 on any work.I would advise you to talk to your principal about this before the beginning of the year. See if there is a make-up policy. If not, present your own policy to the principal and see what he/she thinks.
