CLASSROOM PROCEDURES…



Come into class, pick up any papers from
the GRADED PAPERS or PAPERS TO PICK UP
bins.
Take out your binder and a writing utensil
and neatly put book bags against the back
or side wall of the room.
Cell phones should remain in your book
bag, unless otherwise instructed. I will
have a bin for you to put your cell phones
in, should you be worried yours could be
lost or stolen.
Class objectives will always be posted on
the board… so you will always know, “What
am I doing here today?”
Weekly homework assignments will
always be posted on the board, in addition
to my website.
There is an NA info board in my room that
will post various building and district
information. I will also mark long-term
homework due dates on this calendar in
addition to posting them on my website.
I will keep all old hand outs in the
“cubbies” by the windows. If you miss
class or should lose a paper… you know
where to find them- No need to ask me!!!
So now… PRE-TEST!!!
