1. Chemistry ~Mr. Lynn Most notes in this class will be given on PowerPoint, if you are having trouble reading this… move closer! Sit where you would like, but I am assigning a seating chart today so I can learn your names. That means you are not going to be able to move for a bit.

2. Welcome to Chemistry

3. What you will need Writing utensil 3-ring binder OR notebook and folder Scientific Calculator Lab goggles

4. Calculator

5. Rules and Discipline I will always treat you as adults unless you act like children, then you will be treated as such. Standard punishments- 1 st warnings, then detentions, then a call home, finally referrals. Some actions can warrant severe penalty without a warning or detention.

6. Things I really hate Belligerence (attempting to start a fight) will not be tolerated in this classroom. No one will congregate at the door waiting for the bell to ring, or congregate in the doorway before class starts. You will be in class and in your seat when the bell stops ringing, otherwise you are tardy.

7. Summing up Anything not covered in these rules will be ruled by common sense! You know what you are not supposed to do, so don’t do it. All rules still apply if a substitute teacher is in class!!

8. Policies Detentions will be served in my classroom, room 144, from 2:30 to 3:00. You may either serve it the evening after I give it to you, or the next evening. Tardiness- If the bell stops ringing and you are not in the classroom, you are tardy, even if it is by 1 second. No Exceptions! First two times you get a warning, the third time you get a detention, every other time you get a detention.

9. More Policies If you have to be removed from class you will automatically lose 10 points from your grade. Late homework- you may turn things in one day late and receive 50% credit, two days late is 25%, Nothing may be turned in later than two days.

10. Make up assignments for absences Anything completed on an unexcused absence will count as a zero. It is your responsibility to get notes and any assignments you miss, I am not responsible for reminding you. You will have the number of days you were absent to make up an assignment. If you miss only the day of the test, you will make it up the day you come back!

11. Cheating All parties involved will receive a zero on whatever they were working on. This includes someone who is finished with their paper or test and allows someone to copy, or attempts to give an answer to someone even if their paper is already turned in! This also includes coping someone’s homework or in class assignment, not just tests.

12. Grades Grades will follow this scale 100-90% A 89-80 %B 79-70 %C 69-60% D 60 and belowF You will be graded by quizzes, tests, homework, labs, projects and in class assignments.
