1. Classroom Rules and Procedures Mrs. Gaines

2. Please think of others • There is no hand sanitizer in this classroom. Please do not use this-it aggravates my asthma. • No perfume should be sprayed in the room or at school. • I am fine with you snacking in my classes as long as you do NOT SHARE and clean up after yourself. • No book bags or large bags in here-the isles are already small.

3. What is being Prepared Look Like? • Student has several pencils and pens. Blue or black ink only. • Pencils are sharpened before the bell. • Student has paper-their own, borrowing is unprepared. • Student has homework, notes, and any other handouts that are needed in class. • At the bell you are in your seat, with paper and pencil/pen out. • You are writing in your agenda and ready to start the warm up. • You are quiet.

4. Things that make me GRUMPY-or I know what your doing • People who constantly beg to borrow from others. This will cost 2 points • Standing around talking then needing to leave the room. • People who are unprepared with only one pencil that breaks often requiring them to get up and wander. • People who get up over and over for tissue-get several and park it! • Being late repeatedly. • Talking when others are talking. • Talking during announcements. • Screaming
