[speaker001:] How do you decide what grade we get?
[speaker002:] I look at many things, attendance, quizzes, and tests.
[speaker001:] What is the most important factor?
[speaker002:] Obviously I look for improvement as we go along, but I would like you to do your best from the beginning.
[speaker001:] How can we keep track of our grades?
[speaker002:] The final and midterm are 40 percent of your grade; homework, attendance, and quizzes total 60 percent.
[speaker001:] What if we can't get to school?
[speaker002:] You can only miss one class without penalty.
[speaker001:] If we have a major problem, will you let us know?
[speaker002:] I will be letting you know during the year if you have a major problem.
