reflect many of the formative grades given in class. A tally will be made each
3 weeks and be reflected in progress reports.
It is the student’s responsibility to keep track of the performance
sheet!
75%

(written and oral) major projects or papers
- SSR: It is an expectation that all Smith students have appropriate reading material with them every day to engage in meaningful reading. This is a campus wide policy! The first instructional day of the week will be the “official” reading day for this class, but students should always have something to read with them every day! When the teacher is absent this should always be available!
- Notez: We have a sister school in Alençon, Normandy, France with whom we have communicated through video conferences each year since 2002. We also sponsor guest speakers from Africa and other French speaking areas. J Join the French club this year to experience French culture and music we don’t have time to enjoy in class!! J
