Sophia was a bit late to class and then wasted almost another 10 minutes preparing coffee, going to the bathroom, and organizing her books. For this, she received a participation grade of 80%. She also did not have her homework with her today. She will lose 10 points, receiving a maximum of 90% if she has it next time.

On the positive side, she took her outlining and monologue classwork very seriously. Her monologue cleverly assigned the name "Joe Rich" to her character, discussed Chicago as a major business post, mentioned the refrigerated rail car, and the power hungry culture at the time. Great job!!! Classwork grade of 100%.
