A couple of times! When you get to the pew in which you're going to sit you should genuflect to the alter, which means bowing your head and bending your right knee, almost like a curtsey. There's a period after Communion for personal prayer during which it is appropriate to bow your head, before Communion also there is a retelling of the story of Jesus death and the last supper, a bell will be rung three times during this at which point the head should be bowed. many congregations also bow their heads during the recitals of the Apostles' Creed and the Our Father but that should be plainly obvious. You will also need to genuflect as you leave.
