Procedures
Classroom Procedures • Absolutely NO TALKING during announcements, the pledge, the moment of silence, while the teacher is talking, etc. • When I raise my hand, I am trying to get the classes attention. Stop talking, raise your hand also, face me and listen. • Please do not interrupt during full class instruction time. Please wait until independent time to throw things away, ask to use the restroom, etc. • If you need a sharpened pencil, please raise your hand and I will bring a handheld pencil sharpener to you. The one on the wall is HORRIBLE!
Bathroom Policy • Each student will receive TWO bathroom passes per six weeks. • Have your passport filled out, your teacher assigned pass in hand and teacher permission/signature before leaving. • If you do not use your bathroom passes, they count two points each on a test at the end of the six weeks. This is a reward for those who are responsible and use the bathroom before or after class. • NO ONE LEAVES CLASS FOR ANY REASON WITHOUT THEIR PASSPORT SIGNED. • Wash your hands!!
Participation Policy • Each student begins the Six Weeks with a ZERO for participation. • It is your responsibility to participate EVERYDAY in order to get your points. You must participate on an average of THREE times a day to get your 100 points. • This is 15% of your overall average. • Being involved, volunteering to answer questions, asking good questions, being on task, etc will get you participation points. • You can LOSE points if you are hindering others from learning and participating.
Need help? Not understanding? • Ask for help. • Schedule extra time for help. I am flexible about coming in the mornings or staying in the afternoons but you must check with me first to be sure I will be here and not have a meeting, etc. • DO NOT JUST SHOW UP!

Please do not interrupt class.
