What are the rules for our classroom?
You will have a class set of rules which we will discuss and add any you feel
our class needs. One of my MOST IMPORTANT rules is RESPECT and I
think this covers everything. If you respect me and your classmates, we
will have a great year.
--------------------------------------
What are your expectations of me?
The most important expectation I have of my students is to respect me, their
peers, their environment, and, most importantly, themselves. I believe this
covers everything; when students are respectful of me, each other, and their
school, then we will have a great year!
Additionally, students should come to class prepared with all materials
necessary for my class, including notebooks, writing utensils, independent
reading books, and any completed assignments.
Lastly, I expect all students to do their best in my classroom!
--------------------------------------
Why is ILA two periods?
ILA is two periods because it is both reading and writing.
--------------------------------------
What if I am absent?
You will have one make-up day for each day absent to complete all missed
assignments. You will have a study buddy in the class- He/She will create a
list for you with all attached assignments and leave it in the make-up
reminder binder. If for some reason your buddy did not create a 'Make-up
Reminder' for you.. it is up to YOU to see me for any assignments you
missed. IT IS ALSO UP TO YOU TO SHOW ME YOU MADE UP THE ASSIGNMENTS. IF YOU
DO NOT IT WILL STAY IN MY GRADE BOOK AS A '0'.
--------------------------------------
What happens if I 'forget' to copy down the homework?
You are still responsible for the homework the next school day. You have
homework hotline and you should always have at least 3 classmates' phone
numbers- If it requires a packet page, you can either photocopy a blank
page, have a classmate fax you the blank page, or write down the assignment
on loose leaf paper.
