They must feel comfortable attempting new pronunciation sounds, working in front of the class, in small groups and with several different partners. People are willing to do this in a safe, supportive atmosphere, where they don't fear ridicule from their peers or their teacher. Since we are all members of the same team, we support each other with acceptance, encouragement and respect. Put downs, negative humor, ridicule and name calling are unacceptable in class. I deduct points from this oral grade when you speak English during time for oral French practice.
Ungraded homework is checked on the day it is due.
No credit is given if it is not ready. Late homework is accepted only due to absence. Graded, collected work must be neat with no scratch outs. It must be done in one color pen or pencil. Graded homework assignments are to be done individually.
