  7. Rule #1 Follow Directions Quickly! Don’t waste class time! Be quick about getting out your notebook, homework, and pen or doing something that I have asked you to do.

  8. Rule #2 Raise your hand to speak! We are here to learn! I do see your hand and will call on you – trust me. Don’t blurt out answers!

  9. Rule #3 Listen while others are talking. Listen to your teacher and other students while they are talking. You never know when you might miss something important!

  10. Rule #4 • Be on time for class! • Bring all materials and homework! • Complete all your work on time! • Use your class time wisely! • Don’t cheat – Do your own work! • No gum chewing, food or drinks in class. Make Smart Choices!

  11. Rules #5, 6 & 7 Always try your best and never give up! Be responsible for yourself! Treat others and their property with kindness and respect!

  12. Rule #8 I am happy when all of my students are learning and enjoying science class! I’m not happy when someone makes it difficult for other students to learn! My biggest pet peeve is when people interrupt me or talk when I’m talking. If I am happy, I promise that you will be happy! Keep your favorite teacher (moi) happy!
