Bienvenidos a la clase de español
Señorita WoesteLa sala 1405Lebanon High School
Srta. Woeste’s Recipe for success:
Arrive to class on time, alert and prepared
Raise hand often to participate (in Spanish) and ask questions
Do homework every night to the best of your ability
Study vocabulary at least 10-15 minutes each day. Daily study will prepare you for quizzes or tests
Materials you will need:
3-ring binder Three dividers Paper Pencils Colored pencils or Markers
Grade System Total Points earned/total possible points
= grade average Example: 400/500=.80=80% Grading Scale:
92-100 A83-91 B74-82 C65-73 D0-64 F
Participation Each time a student raises his or her
hand and answers correctly in Spanish, he/she will receive one participation point.
Every few weeks each student’s points are added together and converted to a grade based on the class average for participation.
Grades reflect the students’ frequency and ability to speak Spanish in class.
The dreaded “Págame”
“Págame” a.k.a. “pay me” one participation pt.
Given as a consequence for speaking out in English without permission or disrupting class.
Why is it so important for us to speak only Spanish in
class? When you were a baby and
first learned English, did your mommy speak to you in Japanese?
Your brain naturally follows the path of least resistance and will not hear Spanish if English is also floating around the classroom.
Spanish is Supercool!!!
Tarea Homework Tarea
Homework assignments are checked or collected at the beginning of class each day.
No late homework will be accepted (even if it is finished and in your locker).
Repeated failure to turn in homework assignments will result in a parent phone call.
Copying someone else’s homework is CHEATING. You and the person whose work your copied will each earn a zero.
What to do if you are absent… Check Señorita Woeste’s website for homework
and assignments. There is 1:1 ratio for make up days. Therefore, if you missed one day, all work must be turned in one day after you return.
Upon returning ask me for any worksheets or handouts for the days you were absent.
Copy any notes missed during your absence. Schedule an appointment to make up any tests or
quizzes within 2 days. You must take them within the appropriate time (1:1 ratio). You will receive a zero for the test or quiz that is not made up.
Make up work is your personal responsibility!
¡Bien hecho! When you do a good job in Spanish
class you could receive: Warrior rewards Positive phone calls or emails home Oral praise
Dis-R-E-S-P-E-C-T…a BIG “NO, NO”… To Señorita Woeste To the Spanish language To classmates To yourself
Consequences will be given to those who show disrespect.
Gratis! Gratis! Gratis!
You get two freebies!
Bathroom passesYou will have 2 per semester. You must have your passbook to go.Per school rules… there are no locker passes.
Tarde On time means in the room and in your seat. You get two free tardies (per quarter) after which arriving late to class equals a school detention.
