When you are at home with some kind of sickness or some thing on a school day here is what you should check up on and do.

    It might feel good to you that you have no work to do and nothing to worry about. Actually your teacher may hand out a study guide for a big test or even little home work. If you miss that it could affect your grade latter on. The teachers are going to be more strict about there due dates and deadlines and having an absence in there class is going to make them a little annoyed. Make sure the day you back to school you go to that teacher and ask for papers that you missed in class that day and brief summery of the things that she taught that day. Also remember to turn in a late assignment the day your teacher told you to, don't turn in a late assignment on Friday when it was due on Wednesday. This if a good way to make your teacher mad because they are busy and they have other things to do. 

  A good way to know if you have home work on a day that you missed is to call one of your friends in that class and then you can know that you have to go talk to that teacher the next day. Also ask her if your teacher said any thing important so you can know to.

  If you are out of school for more than 2 days and planning to stay in bed a little longer. Ask your mom to call your school to gather any home work and assignments from all your teachers so your friend can pick it up and give it to you. Write down any questions you have about the assignments on a sticky note a put it on that assignment. This will show your teacher that you are serious about your work. 

Last remember to rest up and get better soon!! : )
