Enroll me in this course

	Remember: You should be studying at least 10-15 minutes EVERY day to make sure your vocabulary sinks in and doesn't flush away after each quiz! Surprise vocabulary quizzes will be given each week to determine students' continuous efforts! Homework will be student corrected but not collected. Homework completion will be determined by in class participation. Notice: If you are absent the day of quiz/test, you must make it up before Wednesday of the following week. Make arrangements to take it before school, after school, during seminar or during the teacher's lunch. Class time will not be available to make up your test. Missing the day before a test does NOT mean you have an extra day. Quizzes and tests are announced far ahead of time, and no new materials are covered on review day (the day before the quiz/test).
