Second Tie hair back and put on overalls Sit quietly and listen to the teacher Work hard and do not distract others Put you hand up when asking or answering questions Listen to others students opinions, questions and answers Be polite and respectful Be patient you are not the only one in the class!

Third Watch and listen carefully to demonstrations - they are there to help you get it right. Ask questions if you don’t understand, you are probably not the only one Stand where you can see! Start work promptly, following instructions. If you have any problems… Think first, ask a friend second, ask the teacher third, you may be able to solve the problem before step 3!

Any problems or accidents should be reported to the Teacher immediately Always tie your hair back in the Textiles room during practical Use all equipment sensibly and safely.
