WELCOME TO U.S. HISTORY!Come in, grab a handout, have a seat anywhere BUT THE OUTER ROWS. Room 463 Mrs. Leslie Pair
My pledge: • I am a teacher. I work and get paid to TEACH you! • I do not strive to be your friend. I will respect you, encourage you, and try to be a “sunny” spot in your day. • I pledge to you that I will do the best I can to teach you U.S. History, prep you for the EOC so you can graduate, and lead by example.
With that being said…. • I cannot teach you when social media, texting, breakups, arguments, or romance is your main focus. • I will ask that you turn in your phone every day to the front of the room with the phone OFF. Not on vibrate, silence, or anything that lights up. • You can pick up your cell phone on the way out of my room after dismissed. • I will put my phone up to teach. This is hard for me too! • *special conditions* • *consequences* • Starting….NOW!
Things that make me happy! • Attendance – I cannot teach you if you are not here! • Attitude- There is nothing better than a good attitude! • Willingness to help others learn. • Following school rules on a daily basis.
Things that make me upset >: i • Rudeness • Disrespectful language • Disrespect for others • Having to discipline a junior in high school because he/she is keeping others in my room from learning. This is a big one.
About me! • I LOVE MY FAMILY!
Let the fun begin! • INTERACTIVE NOTEBOOKS-FIRST PAGE • NAME – • CLASS AND CLASS PERIOD • GLUE IN TEKS (WHAT ARE TEKS?????) • TURN THEM IN
TOMORROW: • We have the discipline assembly on Thursday. • Report to the auditorium. Left side. FIND ME! • I will take roll in the auditorium. • Please be a leader to the sophomores. (quiet in the hall, in the auditorium, respectful to the teachers & presenters, etc.)
