    English I Course Syllabus

    Mrs. Vincent Olutimayin

    Course Description
    English I is a rigorous course designed to challenge students in preparation for college level work.
    The skills necessary to succeed in this course are: independent thinking, critical reading, and clear
    and concise writing. The course follows the Texas Essential Knowledge Skills (TEKS) for English I,
    as well as the guidelines set forth by the College Board in the SpringBoard curriculum.
    Textbook
    The textbook, SpringBoard: level 4, will be provided by the district. The SpringBoard textbook is a
    workbook, and you will receive formative grades for completing the work in it. We will also use the
    Glencoe: Texas Treasures textbook. Students will be able to download this book from the IISD
    Textbook Server or via an online link. A class set of the Glencoe textbooks will remain in the
    classroom.
    Online Class (classroom.google.com)
    Students will be able to access assignments, and other necessities through this program. All students
    are expected to enroll in the course concurrent with their class period. The access code will be given
    by the teacher
    School Email Account (Yourschoolusername@stu.irvingisd.net)
    Every student has a school Google account. You are expected to use it when you email teachers. You
    need to check your emails daily for information about the class.
    You will also use Google Apps for Education to create documents, presentations, essays, and various
    other assignments.
    Homework
    Not all assignments will be completed in the classroom. Students are expected to spend their own
    time in preparation for this course. Writing assignments, vocabulary study, and independent reading
    are examples of the types of homework to be expected in this class.
    Grading
    Grades will be determined in accordance with the IISD grading policy:
    60 % Major Grades (Tests, Essays, Projects)
    40 % Minor (Daily Assignments and Homework)
    Please make sure that you read and understand the grading policy found on the district website.

    Late Work

    If a student fails to submit a major grade by the due date, the student will be given one week to make
    up the assignment and show mastery of the content. If a student fails to submit a minor assignment
    by the due date, a 0 will be placed in the grade book. Minor assignments will not be accepted late.
    Absences and Makeup Work
    It is necessary to be present every day to receive a quality education. When students are absent, it is
    the responsibility of the student to make up any missed work. The district grading policy states that
    students have the same amount of time of an absence to make up missing work.
    Chromebook Usage
    According to IISD policy, chromebooks are to be used for education purposes only. Violations will
    result in loss of use of chromebook and/or confiscation. Students are not allowed to be on their
    chromebook unless they are working on an assignment for English class.
    Tutoring
    Tutoring will be available on Tuesday mornings from 8 to 8:30, and Thursday evenings from 4:205:00. Tutoring times are subject to change, so check your emails daily for updates. In order to come
    to morning tutoring, you will need a pass from either me or your parent. Any other times outside of
    the offered times must be scheduled with the teacher.
    Behavioral Consequences
    I expect all students to follow the student code of conduct. Each student has the right to an education,
    which should not be impeded by the behavior of others. If a student does not follow the student code
    of conduct, appropriate actions will be taken (conference, detention, parent contact, office
    referral).
    Required Material
    Blue/Black ink pen
    1 1- in Binder
    5 dividers
    1 Spiral Notebook
    Color pen (red, pink, orange, ect.)
    Highlighter
    3rd Period Conference
    I will respond to parent emails and phone calls during my second period conference. If you send me
    emails or phone messages during the day, please be patient, and wait for me to respond during second
    period the following day. During the other periods, I am busy teaching class.
    Food and Drinks
    The campus policy states that no food or drink is allowed inside the classrooms. You may bring a
    bottle of plain water (no additives or coloring).
