I will be randomly calling on people to participate, be warned! I want to hear from you. You need to stay on task.
*Participation points*
At the start of each quarter every students receives 25 points for participation. You will lose 5 points for the following: Chewing gum, lacking class materials and requesting to go to your locker, having non-religion class materials on your desk, being disrespectful to myself or others.
Assignments
All typed assignments are to be in 12pt times new roman font with standard margins double spaced. (prayer is excluded in this) I only accept late work one day after the due date. An excused absence will grant you the number of days missed to turn in your assignment. The only information in the heading needed is your name, date, period and the assignment, which is to NOT be double spaced; Points will be deducted if this is not followed.
Prayer:
Prayer in this classroom is to begin with the cantor: Let us Remember… and response: That we are in the Holy presence of God. Each prayer is to conclude with the leader saying: Saint Joseph and the response from the class is Pray for us. Then all will say: God is my light
Each student is to lead the class in prayer twice in the semester, or four times through the year, ALL prayers must be turned in the day of your given prayer, the prayer must be typed, but freedom is given to font and organization.
• 1st quarter – Your prayer assignment is to lead the class in a prayer of a saint or traditional Catholic prayer that you discover. You cannot use: The Our Father, Hail Mary, Serenity Prayer, St. Francis or Footprints. There are numerous website that can help you discover such prayers and book in the library as well.
• The remaining prayer assignments will be given to you as the next quarter comes closer.
Last Notes:
I return your work in a bin in the back of the classroom. You may pick up your graded work there.
You will need to keep track of your past assignments and notes that you take. These will help aid you in studying for quizzes and tests.
I suggest you have a notebook just for this class for notes and other writings. Secondly, please ALWAYS have on hand: a pen, paper, note cards. Please provide these yourself and do not rely on the generosity of others.
