Homework & Journal
Every 4 homeworks count as one grade(for example if you hand in a homework assignment on Mon., Tue., Wed. and Thur., you get a homework grade of 5. If you only hand in 3 assigmenments, you get a 4, etc.).
Scripture journals will be based on the Gospel reading of the Sunday Mass that week. A new passage is assigned each Monday. Journals will either count as an Independent grade (if I have the passage written out on the board); or as a Classwork grade (if the passage needs to be looked up by the student, ie. Luke 5:4-8).
~Ideas and questions about the passage may also be found at www.weliveourfaith.com
