Welcome to Mr. Hodge's Webpage
Here you can find everything (well almost) you need to succeed in Mr. Hodge's Language Arts. Make sure you monitor the important dates that are coming up, check out our team's homework/tardy policies, and familiarize yourself with my grading scale for Language Arts.
These pages will help you as well...
Classwork: Check out this week's assignments. Make sure to check powerschool for past assignments.
Vocabulary: Here you can find the words we are working with in class.
Parents: Please make sure that you check Power School weekly; current grades and directions for assignments can be found there. If accessing this
information is a problem, please contact me. Thank you.
Grades: Tests/Quizzes/Homework will typically be graded and entered within two to three days of the date they are collected. Papers and projects may take a
week to several weeks to be completely entered into Power School. I am sorry for the inconvenience, please be patient with me...
Grading Scale: Grades for both my classes are weighted. The breakdown is as follows. Please understand that under this scale putting off homework, turning work in
late, or not completing the assigned work at all will prevent you from earning a higher grade.
Reading Comprehension: 40%
Writing: 30%
Language/Vocabulary: 20%
Speaking and Listening: 10%
Late Work: Students who miss school due to excused absences will be granted the amount of time they missed to catch up on work, however these students
need to check PowerSchool and come to me with a list of missed assignments. Due to the large number of students in each class, I will not track
individual students down to make sure they have obtained their work.
