                *Your goal should be to obtain all possible points. These points are measured by classwork, worksheets, quizzes, and participation. The total number of points will come from the assignments over the twelve week course.

    • Work values
    • Why do people work?
    • Planning for a career
    • Finding a job (the job search)
    • Writing a resume
    • Job applications
    • Interviews
    • Post interview thank you note

    Grades Generated by Two Sources:

     

    • Written work- Classwork, worksheets, and quizzes.

     

    • Participation – A participation grade will be given to each student after every class. The grades are as follows:

     

    5 points = Actively participates, works diligently, cooperates with others, no     warnings.

     

    3 points = One warning maximum about staying on task or disruptive behavior during class.

     

    0 points = Disruptive behavior, multiple warnings (detention), not participating, not working, not cooperating with others.

     

    *All participation grades are based on the total number of points the student earns during the twelve week period (a maximum of 5 points per class period can be earned).

     

    Make-up/Missed Work:

                *You are given two weeks from the due date to make up any incomplete work. Work that is not made up will be recorded as a zero.
