3rd+9+Weeks

Announcements for the 3rd 9 Weeks (**Scroll Down to View Day-to-Day Assignments)**

Will we be watching a video link while you are out?
 * Are you going to be ABSENT and without Internet?**
 * Be sure to read through assignments ahead of time or immediately upon returning to campus and __open__ documents in neu.annotate (app) so that you may work on them without Internet. If you want a paper copy of something, please feel free to check the "Extra Copies of Stuff" drawer that is located in the classroom.
 * __Download__ the video from my iTunes U to view without Internet.
 * NEVER assume that you are excused from assignments just because you are absent. YOU, the student, are the one who is responsible for collecting and completing your missed work in a responsible and timely manner. Late policy (see syllabus) countdown begins upon your return to campus.

Students are responsible for printing/obtaining their own work for ZAP. Every Tuesday or Wednesday before a ZAP Saturday **I give students a detailed PROGRESS REPORT** that lists any and all zeros that he or she may have at that time. When going to ZAP, all the student needs to **__bring__ is this PROGRESS REPORT and their iPad** for my class. Students may open all assignments in **neu.annotate**, complete the assignments, and email them to me while they are sitting in ZAP. Students do not need to print work. Essays may be written on notebook paper, which the ZAP teacher will have. Detailed ZAP instructions are printed on the back of every detailed progress report and are on the ZAP Page on this website. If a student goes to ZAP without their Progress Report and iPad, they will be sent home. There are computers available in ZAP to students who have lost iPad privileges.
