Loyola Christ Our Life: We Worship - 5
5th grade Religion meets in my classroom first period (8:05-8:55 am) Tuesday-Friday. Students should bring their pencil pouch, Homework Assignment Tablet, Religion notebook, Religion folder & Religion textbook to class each day.
Google Classroom
Daily classwork and homework assignments are posted on Google Classroom. Absent students are responsible for completing these assignments. Google Classroom is also a resource to use for forgotten homework, as well as additional resources.
Homework Policy
Homework is an opportunity to review skills learned in class. Homework also promotes a student's responsibility for his or her own learning.
Students are given time during each class to record homework assignments, due dates, and upcoming assessment dates in their Homework Agenda. Homework assignment reminders are also posted on the Google Classroom.
Homework must be turned in during the class period on the day it is due. I check homework for completion, and then go over it with the class for accuracy. Your child will only be graded for completion of the work. If the assignment was completed, they will receive a 100. Late or incomplete assignments receive a maximum of a 70% in Genesis.
All assessments (quizzes, tests, papers) given on paper will be stamped with a "Please Sign & Return" mark. Students are expected to have their parents sign on the line and bring it back to class with them within two days (assessments are yours to keep after that). Getting this signature counts as a homework assignment. Any questions that you have about the grade should be marked on the paper, or emailed to me, so that I can respond.
If homework cannot be completed because of a family or medical emergency, please email me or attach a note to the assignment. Your child will be given an opportunity to finish the work.
Make Up Assignments
Students are given a reasonable amount of time to make up missed work. Assignments are posted on Google Classroom. It is the student's responsibility to turn in missed work upon return to school.
Upon request, work can be prepared to be sent home. Please let the school office know your request before 11:30 so that materials can be gathered in time for dismissal.
Grading:
Tests/Projects 35%

Genesis
All assignments are posted in the on-line gradebook Genesis. I update my grades at least once a week. Please check there to see if your student any missing assignments.
I typically answer emails during school hours, 7:30 am - 3:30 pm.
