PHONES/CHROMEBOOK Phones: Chromebooks: You may not use your phone while I am teach or when we are doing a class task. If your phone is a problem, I will remove it. *I do allow music while working. If you use your phone appropriately, there will not be any problems. Chromebooks: Chromebooks are to be used appropriately. They are used for note-taking and class participation. If you are using your chromebook during lecture time inappropriately, I will confiscate it.

Absent Work All homework assignments will be posted at the front of the room and on powerschool daily. It is your job to look at the board and copy down your assignment. Its also in the email. If you need a worksheet, you can get one from me or on my website rcarlson.buchananschools.com. You are allowed 1 day for each day absent to complete your work.

Late Work Any assignment that is not in at the end of class or before class begins is flagged late. All late work is 10% off. No exceptions! Late work can be turned in anytime before the chapter or unit is completed.

Opening Work Opening work consists of math is practice problems that we do each day. This makes up 10% of your grade. You will not do other work or talk during this time or you will lose your daily points. This is a great time to ask questions or reinforce skills that you may be weak at.
