  Make-up Work Policy for Absences  Every day, teachers work to fill every minute of your student’s day with rich, meaningful learning opportunities. Our learning in the classroom is done in community with pictures, reading, labs, activities, demonstrations, manipulatives, partner work, bell work/warm up activities, exit tickets, observations, drills, recitations and discussions. When a student is absent or late, we can give your student worksheets, a copy of the notes, and schedule another time for a test/quiz, but these things miss the heart and soul of what we do each day in the classroom. Because of the nature of each learning experience, it is nearly impossible to recreate the lesson/activities that are graded each day.    When a student is absent for illness, they have one calendar day for each day missed to complete any work or assignment that was missed. Students are responsible to take home the absent work left for them on their desk or request the packet from their teacher. A
