Most will be given at the beginning of the period and will cover the reading assignment for that class. Some will be given at the end of class and will cover material from that class meeting. The quizzes will be quite easy if you have done the reading and paid attention in class. If you are not present when the quiz is given, you receive a grade of zero for that quiz. Since you can drop three quizzes, there are no opportunities to make up quizzes you miss.
Late work is subject to a one letter grade penalty if made up within one week.
Thereafter the penalty is two letters. These penalties apply to both the first and final drafts of these assignments .
