How can I avoid losing/ misusing components?
Don’t lend your components to your neighbour. If you lose/ break a piece ask me for a new one. Also, the instructions in Mr. Circuit are precise. Follow them exactly and don’t improvise. The time for you to be creative with your circuits will come later.
Can I listen to music?
You can listen to your I-pod, MP3, etc while you are working. Make sure the volume is low enough so myself and others you can’t hear it.
Can I eat/ drink in the lab?
Yes, but don’t make a mess. Bottles, cans, garbage, etc left behind in the lab will result in the loss of food/ drink privileges. You can chew gum as long as I don’t see it or hear it.
Respect Policy
This is a simple policy…show your fellow students and the teacher respect.
