  1. Welcome to 7th Grade Science Mrs. Bowling Challenger Team

  2. Where Do I Sit??? • You need to sit in the seat that has been assigned to you based on a Row (A, B, or C) and the seat number (1-10). This will remain the same until I decide to make changes. You do not choose your seats, I do.

  3. Will The Teacher Treat Me Fairly? YES!!!! • But, remember my definition and your definition of fair probably aren’t the same but regardless everyone gets equal treatment in this classroom.

  4. Class Procedures

  5. Entering the Classroom • You will wait in the hall, lined up, single file and SILENT beside by classroom, until I dismiss the other class and invite you into the room. • Start immediately on the brainwork assignment posted on the SmartBoard. If it is Monday, you need to get a brainwork sheet from the tray in the front of the classroom and place this in your binder to answer the questions for this week. After finishing brainwork, copy the assignments into your agenda each day. This and your brainwork will be checked for completion on Fridays. • Sit quietly and wait for the teacher to begin.

  6. Working at the Lab Stations • Most of the time we are working at lab stations around the room. You are to remain with your assigned lab partner at all times, work at your assigned station, and do not disturb other groups. • For your safety as well as the safety of others you should also refrain from horseplay while completing labs. • When you finish a lab, place your lab sheet in the bin for your class period and return to your seat. You may work on your homework, read an AR book, or complete homework for an-other class, in this order.

  7. When I Need to Get Your Attention… I will . . . • Stand in front of the class. • Raise my hand. • Wait for everyone to be quiet. • Begin speaking when everyone is quiet

  8. Working in the Outdoor Classroom • Please proceed to the designated area for learning if the sign is posted on the door to report to the outdoor classroom. COME DIRECTLY TO THE OUTDOOR CLASSROOM!! DO NOT BE LATE!!! • Bring all books and materials with you, do not leave them in the commons or hallway and arrive at the designated location on time with the rest of your classmates. • Sit on your assigned row or table when you arrive and answer the brainwork question on the sheet and wait for the teacher to give instructions on what you are doing today. • When you finish your assignment return to the amphitheater or shelter and work on your homework until it is time to return to the building, then, do so in a quiet, orderly manner and report to your next class immediately. • Listen for the whistle or loud speaker to return to your designated area for important announcements or to wrap up class.

  9. Leaving the Classroom • When there is five minutes remaining in class, I will have you return to your seats, if you are at lab stations, we will complete the exit assignment for the day, and inspect to make sure all lab stations are cleaned up and orderly. • The teacher will then dismiss you to your next class. • When you leave, you need to push in your chair and take any trash on the floor near your desk and place it in the trash can or recycling bin.

  10. Turning in Papers • Place your paper on the desk next to you. • Left side • If/When you receive a paper, place yours on top and continue passing the stack to your left. • I or another student will come by and collect all stacks.

  11. What if I finish work early? • There are several choices for what to do when or if you finish your work early: • Work on HW for Tonight • Read your AR Book (Must be brought to class everyday!!!) • Complete a Current Science worksheet or Article Summary for Bonus points • Do a challenge activity from the folder in the front of the classroom

Class Guidelines (AKA the Rules!!!) • Get to your assigned seat and immediately begin the brainwork assignment for the day. • Bring ALL materials you need to be successful in class each and every day. This includes your binder, pencil or pen, agenda book, and AR book. • Follow all directions the first time they are given by the teacher. • Follow all procedures and rules outlined in the MCMS Student Handbook/Agenda. • Everyone is to be treated with respect and dignity

  16. SPECIAL GUIDELINE!!!! • This classroom is a NO WHINING-ZONE!!! That means that there will be no whining, for ANY reason. Everything that I do is in your best interest, so please respect the “No Whining Zone” this year

  17. What Happens if You Break the Rules… • 1st offense: warning from the teacher (This means you need to stop the problem behavior immediately) • 2nd offense: Action Plan to be completed and re-turned at the end of class and you need to meet with the teacher after class to discuss the issue at hand. • 3rd offense: conduct chronicle signature • Serious offenses such as defiance of authority, fighting, bullying, harassment, etc. will result in automatic office referral.

  18. Homework Policy

  19. My Homework Policy… • Homework is assigned every night, Monday through Thursday. I do not give homework on the weekends. It is due when you enter class the following day. Failure to do home-work results in the completion of a student responsibility pink-slip card which will be kept as documentation that the assignment was not completed. Homework is worth 10 points per day.

  20. Make-Up Work • Go to the While You Were Out Bin. • Retrieve work from the folder of the day that you were absent. • Sign the homework notebook acknowledging that you picked up your missed work. • Makeup work is not available if your absence is unexcused.
