Welcome to Language Arts. with Ms. Barker. Attendance. Attention Signal. There will be times that you’re allowed to talk amongst yourselves and I need the whole class’ attention again. When I raise my hand and say, “Show me that you see me” I expect you to raise your hand and become silent.

Welcome to Language Arts with Ms. Barker
Attention Signal • There will be times that you’re allowed to talk amongst yourselves and I need the whole class’ attention again. • When I raise my hand and say, “Show me that you see me” I expect you to raise your hand and become silent. • Let’s practice.

Supplies Cont.’d • These supplies will remain in class: • Composition notebooks (which will be referred to as comp. books.) • Comp. books are stored in the back cabinet and are color coded by class. • Post-its (they’re added to a communal pool.)
