Presentation Transcript

  1. Welcome! • While we wait for everyone to be seated and for the bell to ring, please fill out the information sheet and review the other handouts. • We will go over each handout in detail as soon as class begins.

  2. WELCOME! Mrs. Graham | English I

  3. Classroom Expectation • Be RESPECTFUL • Be RESPONSIBLE • Be SAFE • Be PREPARED

  4. Rules and Consequences • I will follow the rules and consequences outlined in your Student Handbook and Code of Conduct.

  5. Entrance • Make sure you have all necessary materials for this class. • Enter the classroom quietly. • Go directly to your assigned seat. • Get ready for your work. • If you have homework to turn in, place it in the tray designated for your class period.

  6. Supplies • You should bring your English supplies each time you come to class: • Composition notebook • English folder • Black Ink Pen (Blue is acceptable, but not preferred) • No pencils – if you need a pencil for any assignment I will provide one

  7. Agenda and Bell Work • Every day will begin with an agenda, vocabulary and bell work • Immediately copy the agenda and vocabulary in your composition notebook and start the bell work that will be written on the board or projected onto the screen. • Bell work may be a journal entry, a sentence to be corrected, a review for a quiz, etc. • Bell work is mandatory is a major grade each six weeks. • When you finish, wait quietly for the next direction.

  8. May I Have Your Attention Please? • If I need to get your attention at any time during class I will give you the time-out signal • Stop whatever you are doing at that moment. • Face me and wait silently. • Notify any classmates who haven’t noticed that I have raised my hand. • No talking or whispering. All of your attention should be given to the me.

  9. Turning in Assignments • All assignments should be turned in to the tray for your class. • Homework should be turned in as soon as you get to class.

  10. Headings • All assignments, including tests should have the proper heading: Your Name Mrs. Graham English I Date • I will not accept assignments without this heading. (That means I will not grade them, which means you do not earn credit for that assignment.)

  11. Dismissal • Wait for me to dismiss you. The ring of the bell does not dismiss you. • After you get permission to leave, gather your things and leave quietly.

  12. Restroom Breaks • You have ample time to go before you get here. • Any student late for any reason is late.

  13. Absences/Make-up Work • I will follow the rules regarding absences and make-up work as outlined in your student handbook. • YOU are responsible for your make-up work. All assignments will be posted to the class calendar which can be found on the class Wiki: • http://grahamenglishi.wikispaces.com • If you are absent for a test you must arrange to take a make-up test. This DOES NOT APPLY if you are absent the day before the test or the day of a review.

  14. Late Work • I will follow the rules regarding late work as outlined in your Student Handbook.

  15. Academic Honesty • It is expected that students will use genuine, sincere, and fair means for completing tests, tasks and projects. • Students found plagiarizing, copying or cheating in any way will be disciplined according to the Student Handbook and Code of Conduct. • Documentation of the incident will be kept on file

  16. Cell Phones/iPods • I will follow the rules and regulations regarding cell phones and other electronic devices as outlined in the Student Handbook • Occasionally we may use cell phones for instructional purposes such as recording assignment due dates and test dates in your cell phone calendar feature.

  17. Emergencies • In the event of an emergency I will follow the procedures for the specific event. • It is extremely important for you to listen and follow instructions.
