  2. Class Rules • Rules need to be followed to create a safe learning environment. • Following the rules will result in every student learning as much as possible while having fun. • Rules, when broken, will hinder learning and result in consequences.

  3. Rules • Be seated and working when the bell rings. • Treat each person with respect and dignity. • Bring all required books and materials with you and take them with you when you leave. • Follow all directions. • Follow all rules and guidelines in the student agenda book. • The bell does not dismiss the class, the teacher does.

  4. Consequences • Consequences occur when the rules are broken. If you do not like the consequences, don’t break the rules! 1st Offense: Verbal Warning 2nd Offense: Written Warning 3rd Offense: Contact Home 4th Offense: Detention • Severity Clause: If your behavior is extreme, the consequence will be extreme.

  5. Procedures • Procedures are necessary to create a positive learning environment. • Procedures are the way we do things to ensure maximum time on task. • Procedures enable us to learn as much as possible and enjoy our time in class together.

  6. Intercom Procedure • Freeze and LISTEN! • Stop talking immediately • Stop moving around

  7. ENTERING THE CLASSROOM • Walk quietly to your seat and sit. • Take out your materials: notebook, textbook, homework, and pencil/pen. • Head your notebook page properly. • Copy the objective for the day and begin your Do Now in your notebook.

  8. Notebook • Start each day on a new page. • Be sure to put a date on each page. • Label everything. • Record all notes and vocabulary. • Always write page numbers and number all questions/problems. • Write responses in complete sentences! • NO WORK = NO CREDIT • Copy examples while taking notes.

  9. ASKING QUESTIONS • Questions are a very important tool when learning! • Raise your hand to ask a question and wait to be called on before asking your question. • Do NOT be embarrassed to ask a question, someone else in class is probably thinking the same thing you are. • Ask questions as soon as you are confused; someone else is probably just as confused!

  10. Homework • You must have two homework buddies that you can always contact: phone, email, Facebook, twitter, etc. • All assignments will be posted online on our class page. • No make-up homework will be available for students who are present in class the day it is assigned and the day it is due.

  11. REVIEWING HOMEWORK • I will check that the homework is complete, if it is you receive the total points it’s worth, if it’s not you receive a 0. • All homework assignments will be reviewed in class so that you can see how well you are doing! • When reviewing homework: • Have your textbook open to the correct page and your notebook with the answers open or have completed worksheet on your desk. • Correct your answers: put a check or copy the correct way to solve the problem. • If you have difficulty with the homework, please see me for help!

  12. Tardy • WITH A PASS: • If you arrive to class tardy with a pass, quietly hand it to me and join in the class activity. • WITHOUT A PASS: • If you arrive late to class without a pass, quietly go to your seat and join in the class activity. • You will receive a 15-minute detention. • If you are tardy to my class twice in one week, you will receive a 30-minute detention.

  13. Lockers • Before School • Before or After Lunch • After School • Please do not ask to visit your locker during class. • If you forgot something, borrow from a friend.

  14. Absences • It is your responsibility to show me any work that was due the day you were absent. • You have 2 days for every 1 day you are absent to make up the missed work. • All handouts/worksheets will be available to you upon your return. • Once the work is made up, it is your responsibility to show me it so that I can give you credit.

  15. Our Classroom • The classroom is a place for ALL of us to learn. • If we want a clean classroom, then we must keep it that way. • Clean up after yourself! • Throw away all garbage! • The supplies we have must last us all year. • Be careful while using the supplies. • Return supplies in the same condition you receive them. • Please remember not to take them with you. • Once the supplies are gone, we can no longer complete engaging activities that involve them.

  16. SHARPENING YOUR PENCIL • Before class • As soon as you enter the classroom, you may use the sharpener on the way to your seat. Remember: you must be seated when the bell rings! • During group work • You may go directly to the sharpener and directly back to your seat without disturbing others. • Never more than once a day.

  17. Supplies • Two pens (black or blue and any other color for revising and editing purposes), a pencil, and a highlighter. • A three ring binder (1 1/2") with filler paper and four dividers for reading, writing, vocabulary, and grammar. • A folder. • Post-it notes (3x3") in any color. • Textbook & Novels: supplied by the school and must remain in good condition. • Please bring all of your textbooks and other materials to class every day.

  18. GRADING Grades are calculated as a percentage of total points for the marking period, with larger assignments being worth more points. There is no extra credit work in English.  In addition, the English department has a no tolerance policy for plagiarism.
