  3. Classroom Rules They will be created and designed by YOU! ***We will do this a little later.

  4. Our Class Website • http://www.santeesd.net/page/2290 • Contains information about what’s happening in the classroom. • Is an access point with relevant information / links

  5. Materials Needed in Class • Notebook • Flash drive • Zipper pouch • Pens – blue, black and red for correcting • Notebook paper • 5 Spiral notebooks • Subject dividers (not folders • Backpack • Optional: Scissors Post it notes Tiny stapler Large paper clips

  6. Grades • Based on an average of: class work homework quizzes and or tests • Tests are weighted more than daily work • Grading Scale: 100 – 85 4 84 – 70 3 69 – 55 2 54 and lower 1

  7. Discipline Plan • Classroom rules and discipline procedures are to be followed and will be carried out. • Consequences of not following rules will result in lower citizenship grade, loss of recess, notes and phone class home, conferences and in and out of school suspensions. • Step 1 (Blue): Verbal warning • Step 2 (Green): Student/Teacher Conference (during recess) • Step 3 (Yellow): Phone Call Home • Step 4 (Red): Office Referral • Beyond a step 4 results in an in or out of school suspension

  8. Good Choices = Fabulous Rewards

  9. Table Points • Earning team points • 1, 2, 3, eyes on me = ALL eyes are on me! • Example: Whole team is on task and following instructions = +1 point • Losing table points • Example: One or more team members not on task and/or following instructions = -1 point • Every Friday there is a reward for the team with the most points.

  10. Movie Permission • We have opportunities to show different types of videos and DVDs during the school year. Most often the movies are G rated and are shown over several days , like a week of rain. Some of our movies are from the history channel, some follow up to stories or activities and are unrated, and some are surprisingly PG. • I must have a parent OK to show PG movies

  11. Request for Classroom Donations • This year we will be reading several books together as a class. The district does not have enough copies and the ones that they do have are very old and losing pages. I would like to create my own set of these books if at all possible. The total donation would be $20 per student.
