Next stop... N "The Next Dimension" English I and II Mrs. Lynne Martin
I love to sing! Reading is another favorite hobby. And I love teaching! I graduated from FSU in 1996 with my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Ed. I recently graduated from UWF with my Master's Degree in Reading Ed. A little about me...
A little more about me... • Taught first graders from 1996-2005 at WDE • Taught third graders from 2005-2007 at WDE • Coordinated UWF after-school tutoring program in Walton County, 2007-2009 (continuing part-time) • Stay up-to-date on what's happening in my profession by reading professional journals and books, attending professional conferences, workshops, and professional development events
So you're in good hands! Together, we will have a successful year!
A few words about... Procedures! • They are a part of life! • What are some procedures we follow? WHY?
SO EVERYONE CAN FUNCTION IN SOCIETY KNOWING THE ACCEPTABLE AND EFFICIENT WAYS PEOPLE DO THINGS!
Beginning the class: Come in quietly. Sit in your assigned seat Have all needed materials Begin your bellwork The Four Commandments... Procedures...
Thou shalt not hang outside the door. Thou shalt not groom thyself in the classroom. Thou shalt have no outside food or drink in the classroom. Thou shalt have no cell phones or electronic devices out in the classroom.

Working in Support Groups: You are responsible for your own work. If you have a question, ask a support buddy for help. You must help if you are asked for help. One representative from your support group may ask for my help if the entire group agrees on the question. Still more procedures...
Returning work: All work will be returned to the appropriate stacking tray (Period 1, Period 2, etc.) Moving about the room: Please remain seated during our lessons. When moving into groups, other instructional areas, or reading areas, please do so politely and quickly. Respect the personal space of others. Heading your paper: MLA format Your name Mrs. Martin English I, P3 Date Almost finished...
Class discussions: Listen considerately to what the person is saying. (No eye-rolling, noise-making, or interrupting.) Wait for the person to finish before responding. Raise your hand to signal you have something to say. Respond courteously. Respect the opinions and points of view of everyone. If you disagree, maintain a respectful tone. The teacher should not monopolize the discussion. Dismissal: Please remain seated I will dismiss you with an appropriate comment Please leave our classroom as you entered it - quietly and politely Procedures...make the world go round!
Moving papers: Far right begins Lay paper on desk to your left That person puts her paper on top Continue procedure If you need my attention: Raise your hand Wait for me to recognize you
When you're finished... • Read your book. • Write - Reading Journal or Writing Journal • Begin your English homework. • Complete make-up work.
Our Classroom Rules(otherwise known as "Great Expectations") 1. Be responsible. 2. Respect yourself and others at all times. 3. Act with integrity. 4. Give your best effort at all times in everything you do!
The fine print... As additional procedures become necessary, I will share them with you! We will practice each new procedure and I will make sure you understand what is expected!
"Successful people aren't born that way. They become successful by establishing the habit of doing things unsuccessful people don't like to do. The successful people don't always like these things themselves; they just get on and do them."
Our Greatest Fear Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,talented and fabulous?Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.We were born to make manifest the glory ofGod that is within us.It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine,we unconsciously give other peoplepermission to do the same.As we are liberated from our own fear,Our presence automatically liberates others.—Marianne Williamson
