Coursepacks
You will be provided with coursepacks throughout the semester that are to be kept in your 3 ring binder. You
may receive some additional hand-outs, but the majority of the course material will be in the coursepacks. I
will check coursepacks frequently to see that homework assignments are completed and provide students
feedback on areas of improvement. When a unit in the coursepack is completed, coursepacks will be collected
and unit assignments will be graded holistically using the following rubric.
✓+ = Exemplary effort (100) Assignment was completed with great detail and demonstrates critical
thinking. The student put significant effort into the assignment.
✓ = Satisfactory effort (80) Assignment was completed but lacked some detail and demonstration of
critical thinking. The student put some effort into the assignment.
✓ - = Unsatisfactory effort (60) Assignment completed with little to no detail or was partially
completed. The assignment displayed no critical thinking. The student put little effort into completing the
assignment.
0 = no effort. Assignment was not attempted or was plaigirized.
Classroom Expectations: In addition to the policies established by SBHS,
Success Contract
I, _________________________, student, hereby agree to the following actions on my part to facilitate my
success in World History.
● I will commit myself to academic integrity and not plagiarize or take advantage of the work of other
classmates. Further, I understand that a violation of academic integrity will result in parent contact and
a zero for the assignment.
● I will commit myself to spend an appropriate amount of time on each assignment.
● If I cannot understand a question or find an answer, I will not get mad or give up. I will continue to work
on the assigned activities, proactively seeking alternative resources and assistance until I get it!
● I know I can attend turtoring after school on Mondays and Wednesdays until 3:30 for help.
● I will work cooperatively with other people in class in groups of varying size.
● I will try to help other students as well as seek help when I need it.
● I know it is my responsibility to complete make-up assignments and schedule make up assessments
when I miss class.
● I understand that I am responsible for my learning and will advocate for my success.
● I know that in exchange for me fulfilling my end of the contract that Mrs. Bryan will do everything she
can to help me succeed in this course.
