Assignments, Translations Homework You should expect written homework each night except on the night before a quiz or test. The assignments will be posted in class with the Latin Phrase for the day and the daily schedule. Be sure to write down the Homework assignment. Homework will be graded at the instructor’s discretion. Sometimes it will be collected and graded for accuracy. At other times it will be checked for completion. Sometimes a grade will be taken for an oral presentation of some aspect of the homework. All students begin the quarter with 2 points added to their quarter average. Each time a HW assignment is incomplete or not presented when called for, a point is deducted from the quarter average. Not bringing your Latin materials to class also falls under this policy. We need to average about 60-75 lines a week in order to complete the AP curriculum, so that should give you an idea of the average homework load in terms of the amount of Latin you will prepare. Credit Vergil is an AP course and as such you have the opportunity to earn college level credit. By enrolling in the course you are expected to take the AP exam in May. Emphasis
