CLASSROOM PROCEDURES:
COURSE OVERVIEW:
Arrival: Students will
immediately be seated and quietly
complete the warm-up activity.
Tests: Students who score a C or lower on a
test may make corrections for half
credit. I encourage students who make
a D/F to retake the test at lunch if a
parent signs the original test.
1st 9 weeks- European
Colonization, The Age of Reason
Leaving the Room: Students will not
be excused to go to their lockers during
class. Students should use the restroom
during the provided times. Emergency
passes will be written in student agenda
and students must sign-out and sign-in.
3rd 9 weeks- Imperialism, WWI
and Great Depression, WWII and
Rise of Dictators
Homework Assignments:
Students should copy the week’s
assignments into their agendas on
Monday. Homework can be
expected Mon-Thurs which should
take approx. 15 minutes to
complete.
Missing work/Makeup work:
Missing homework will result in
lunch detention. I will accept late
work; however it may be docked
up to 10% per day. It is always
best to turn in work late rather than
not turn it in at all! Students will
have the same number of days as
days absent to turn in the work with
no penalty.
Lockers: Students may go to their
lockers during AM homeroom, lunch,
and end of day. It is important that
students use their school-issued lock. to

American Revolutions, Industrial
Revolution

supplies needed everyday, students
will need a composition notebook
for each 9 weeks.
