A For the Day?

New for 2k18-2k19, here is how the "A for the Days" work: A for the Days are earned in a variety of ways either from a comment/answer/question in class to an answer on an assignment or by snapping a pic of something we've learned about in class while you were outside of school! A for the Days are used as Xtra Credit. They also expire. At the end of the first half of the year, your A for the Days expire and you star the second half of the year with a clean slate. You may use them on the Midterm and Final exams as well if you choose to hold out. Here's the value...

4 = 1 pt on a test (No rounding up)

5 = 1 pt on the Midterm/Final (no rounding up)

10 = 100 on a HW/Class assignment

15 = 100 on Quiz Grade or a 100 on a Presidential Project

100 = Wow, you're in great shape and must do a ton of xtra stuff...I'll buy you breakfast before school someday

125 = Coffee before school with a friend..I'll buy!

150 = We can go out to lunch at your favorite restaurant

200 = You can give me a bill and I will make it a law

250 = I will take you and a friend out to dinner

300 = You can come to Friday trivia with me

400 = You do not have to take the midterm or final exam

500 = Automatic 100 in the class :)

750 = I will teach you to pole vault for free for life

1000 = I will pay for your college education

10,000 = I will speak at your wedding

50,000 = I will pay for your wedding

100,000 = I will buy your first house

1,000,000 = Your children can attend Davis and any college in New Hampshire for FREE!
