Bring your planner, binder, and a writing utensil to class everyday. Seventh grade students also need to bring their interactive notebook to class on a daily basis.
I will use a 5 second countdown to get your attention. When I get to 0, your voice should be off and you should be ready to listen.
The daily agenda will be posted on the board. A weekly calendar will also be available on the side of the whiteboard.
Be Responsible
If you are confused or need help, ASK QUESTIONS!
Listen to directions when they are given so that you know what you are expected to do.
You need to fill out a pass in your planner in order to leave the classroom for any reason. Please only use passes at times that do not interrupt the class.
If you are absent, check the absent board and ask your table partner to find out what you missed and what needs to be completed. YOU are responsible for finding out what you missed and making it up. Absent work will be accepted without penalty.
Studying before tests is essential. To be most successful, spend some time practicing the language at home every night.
I will only allow re-takes on tests if your grade was a D or below. You will need to fill out the re-take form under the Important Forms section of this website.
You need to complete the assigned classwork on time in order to receive a good grade. Late work will be accepted for half credit until the end of the unit. The only extra credit offered will be the BOGGLE activities for each unit.
Be Respectful
Do not talk while other people are talking. Raise your hand if you would like to contribute to a class discussion or if you have a question.
Before you leave the classroom, you need to return any materials you borrowed and clean up your general area. Do not leave trash on your table or on the floor. Remain at your table until you are released by the teacher.
