Academy/ Class Expectations • In here, we give 100% effort towards academics and behavior for excellence and safety. • In here, we are victorious when we make a mistake and learn. • In here, we are respectful of all people and their different beliefs, ideas, and contributions. • In here, we are impressive!
Introduction to class • Model notebook and complete a goals page for the first semester and year.
Material Procedures • Supplies • Turn in tray • Missed work tray/ model card • Due dates and target list board • Daily target and formative assessment spot
Technology • In here, we think safety first. • No food or drinks when Macs or other devices are out. • Macs and devices stay on tables when in use. • One person operates the Mac or other device at a time. We may have two people collaborating on a device, but only one person is the operator. • You must stay seated while Macs and other devices are being used. • Technology is only to be used for instructional purposes—unless teacher has instructed otherwise • Only a teacher will distribute and collect the Macs. • When the green technology sign is out that means we are going to use technology today, but you must wait for my say before you begin use. • If you do not follow the rules the consequences are as follows: • Warning • No access to technology for the rest of the day • No access for ten days and administrative or other corrective action will be taken.
