1 7th Grade Science

2 Class Rules Rules need to be followed to create a safe learning environment. Following the rules will result in every student learning as much as possible while having fun. Rules, when broken, will hinder learning and result in consequences.

3 Rules Be seated and working when the bell rings.
Treat each person with respect and dignity. Bring all required books and materials with you and take them with you when you leave. Follow all directions. Follow all rules and guidelines in the student agenda book. The bell does not dismiss the class, the teacher does.

4 Consequences Consequences occur when the rules are broken. If you do not like the consequences, don’t break the rules! 1st Offense: Verbal Warning 2nd Offense: Written Warning 3rd Offense: Contact Home 4th Offense: Detention Check your Agenda Book for details

5 Procedures Procedures are necessary to create a positive learning environment. Procedures are the way we do things to ensure maximum time on task. Procedures enable us to learn as much as possible and enjoy our time in class together.

6 Stop talking immediately
Intercom Procedure Freeze and LISTEN! Stop talking immediately Stop moving around

7 ENTERING THE CLASSROOM
Walk quietly to your seat while the monitor for the day passes out the Do Now notebooks. Take out your materials: notebook, textbook, homework, and pencil. Read the agenda and objective for the day. Head your notebook page properly. Do Now will be led by student (will be explained during Science class in detail) Begin your Do Now.

8 Notebook Start each day as a continuation from the previous lesson unless a new topic is starting. You must have a marble notebook for science and a pocket folder Be sure to put a date on each page. Record all vocabulary. Take notes. Notebooks will be checked randomly- without warning so always be prepared!

9 ASKING QUESTIONS Questions are a very important tool when learning!
Raise your hand to ask a question and wait to be called on before asking your question. Do NOT be embarrassed to ask a question, someone else in class is probably thinking the same thing you are. Ask questions as soon as you are confused; someone else is probably just as confused!

10 Homework You must have two homework buddies that you can always contact: phone, , facebook, Twitter, etc. All assignments will be posted online on our class page. No make-up homework will be available for students who are present in class the day it is assigned and the day it is due.

11 REVIEWING HOMEWORK Homework will be checked on a regular basis.
If it is a ‘Flipped Classroom” assignment, your notes will be checked as the homework. All homework assignments will be reviewed in class so that you can see how well you are doing! When reviewing homework: Have your completed assignment on your desk. Correct your answers: put a check or write the correct answer for the question. If you have difficulty with the homework, please see me for help!

12 Tardy WITH A PASS: WITHOUT A PASS:
If you arrive to class tardy with a pass, quietly hand it to me and join in the class activity. WITHOUT A PASS: If you arrive late to class without a pass, quietly sign in on the tardy sheet and join in the class activity. Check your Agenda book for consequences

13 Flipped Classroom A ‘Flipped Classroom’ is designed to save time during the regular class and have you read a PowerPoint presentation at home, and answer questions This allows you to be prepared for discussion and saves time during class for identifying areas needing clarification If you do not have internet access at home, you will need to sign up for the ‘Before the Bell’ classes to complete the required assignments for the Flipped Classroom”

14 Lockers Before School Before Lunch After School
Please do not ask to visit your locker during class. If you forgot something, borrow from a friend.

15 Absences It is your responsibility to show me any work that was due the day you were absent. You have 2 days for every 1 day you are absent to make up the missed work. All handouts/worksheets are available to you on the class pages or upon your return if you do not have internet access. Once the work is made up, it is your responsibility to show me it so that I can give you credit. Ask your homework buddies for assistance

16 Our Classroom The classroom is a place for ALL of us to learn.
If we want a clean classroom, then we must keep it that way. Clean up after yourself! Throw away all garbage! The supplies we have must last us all year. Be careful while using the supplies. Return supplies in the same condition you receive them. Please remember not to take them with you. Once the supplies are gone, we can no longer complete fun activities that involve them.

17 SHARPENING YOUR PENCIL
Before class As soon as you enter the classroom, you may use the sharpener on the way to your seat. Remember: you must be seated when the bell rings! During group work You may go directly to the sharpener and directly back to your seat without disturbing others. Never more than once a day.

18 Supplies You need at least two pencils and a pen with you everyday!!!
You need a notebook and a pocket folder .

20 LAPTOPS Every student will be assigned a laptop # 1-20.
When you are asked to get your laptop, approach from the right and leave to the left to avoid a traffic jam. When you disconnect your laptop, tuck the cord onto your laptop's shelf so we don’t end up with a knotted mess of wires. (no hanging snakes!) When returning the laptop, it must be placed in the correct place and must be plugged in every time!

21 Laptop Rules Report any damage to your laptop immediately.
Close your laptop before carrying it around the classroom. Never leave your laptop unattended. Always log off before returning your laptop to the cart. You must receive permission prior to printing and may only click print once. (Most work will be on Google docs or ed as attachments.) Only visit approved websites and use appropriate programs, students off task will lose their privileges

22 PROBLEM OF THE WEEK The Problem of the Week or POW will be distributed Monday and will be due Friday. The POW is available on line on the Class Page under Useful Links usually posted on Friday the week before so you may work on it over the weekend. POW’s may be submitted before Friday It counts as one quiz grade and is graded based on the NJ State Rubric. If you need help see me ASAP, not Friday morning.

23 If you do not submit a POW, the grade entered will be ‘0’
POW GRADE SCALE 3=100% 2=88% 1=73% Very Poorly answered=65% If you do not submit a POW, the grade entered will be ‘0’
