6th Grade World History Syllabus
6th Grade
World History
Mr.
Reynolds: mreynolds@gwa.com
2017-2018
World History
Welcome to 6th Grade! I look forward to having a
great school year with all my students.
We will be working hard, learning as much as possible, and having fun!
Expectations:
- BE
POSITIVE!
- You
are 100% responsible for your actions.
- Be on
time! Be prepared.
- Complete
all work to the best of your ability
- Respect
yourself and others.
- Listen
to the person who is speaking.
- Come
into class Quietly and ready to learn.
Grading System
20% -homework/class work
30% -quizzes
50% -tests/projects
There
will be approximately 4-5 tests/projects each nine weeks. Test and projects are
the best indicators of what you have learned so please prepare!
Homework Policy
We
try to keep all homework assignments in each academic class less than 30
minutes per day, but this excludes special projects.
All completed=100
Two thirds completed=80
Half completed=50
Less than half or none
completed=0.
Homework is the responsibility of the
student in 6th grade. Part of completing the homework assignment is
bringing it to school and to class.
History Field Trip
During our 3rd
quarter, we will be studying the Middle Ages and Medieval Time period. As part
of this unit, we will visit and participate in the Medieval Times Dinner and
Tournament.
Absent Policy:
For every day a
student misses, he or she has that many days to turn in the missed work. It is
the responsibility of the student to find out the missed assignment and turn in
the work. A “1” will be entered into the gradebook for any missed work due to absences,
and will be changed if the assignment is turned in on time. If you are absent,
please check each teachers blog for assignments.
RenWeb
Grades will be posted to RenWeb which parents have access to
anytime. Please check your student’s grades periodically. To set up an account,
or for any questions regarding your RenWeb access, please see the Guidance
office.
Teacher Blogs:
Each 6th
grade teacher has a blog that is updated with assignments, important upcoming
dates such as tests/quizzes, or other important announcements. This is meant to
be a resource for the students but any assignments that are assigned in class
but not on the blog are still the responsibility of the student.
My blog
address is: www.gwahistory6-reynolds.blogspot.com/
“The will to win, the desire to succeed, the
urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the
door to personal excellence.”
