1. Welcome!

2. Who is the lady talking at the front of the room?
Ms. Mueller
I teach Anatomy & Physiology, I2HS, CLC
Office: Room 157
Phone #:
address:
Take out phones and put me as a contact

3. What will I learn this semester? (I2HS)
You will learn:
What “health care” really means
What types of jobs you can get in the healthcare field
How to get those jobs
The current controversies in the healthcare field
Where healthcare is headed

4. What will I learn this semester? (A/P)

5. What do I need for this class?
3-ring binder (at least 1 inch that will be used only for this class)
Loose-leaf paper
Dividers
You can buy these or make them out of construction paper and sticky notes
Writing utensils
THESE MATERIALS SHOULD BE BROUGHT TO CLASS EVERY DAY

6. When do I need these materials?
Monday Monday Monday!
If you cannot get these by Monday, come talk to me!

7. What are the classroom rules?
#1: Be respectful
Of classmates, teachers, property, etc
DO get to know one another
DO keep an open mind
DO take care of your textbook, work area, classroom, etc
DO be quiet when someone else is speaking
Including teacher and classmates
DO NOT talk during lectures/instruction/etc
No writing on desk, no talking when another is talking, raise hands unless asked for unison answer
There will be sensitive issues discussed and so it is important to be respectful of other people’s life experiences and beliefs

8. What are the classroom rules?
#2: Come prepared
Each day, please bring
Writing utensils
Your binder for this class
Paper
If you forget these materials and need to go to your locker, ask permission and I will let you go. However, I will mark you tardy. After 5 tardies I will issue a detention.
Before the bell rings, you should:
Be in your assigned seat
Have out the proper materials
Be copying down the COLORA (more on this later....)
Not in seat? TARDY

9. What are the classroom rules?
#3: Help each other

10. What are the classroom rules?
#4: Put a heading on ALL papers in the upper RIGHT corner
Name
Date
Period
Failure to do so will result in a 5% deduction on the assignment you turned in

11. What are the classroom rules?
#5: All assignments are due when the bell rings to the turn in basket
This basket is located ____________
I will collect these assignments immediately
Stragglers have a 5% deduction right off the bat
Again, you guys are young adults. You are on the brink of being independent. Grown ups get things done on time. If I am late on my rent check or other bills, there are consequences. You can expect the same.

12. What are the classroom rules?
#6: Use class time wisely
The more you do in class, the less homework you will get
The less HW you get, the less of a chance of negative consequences for not doing it
Stay on task
I understand humans are social creatures and during work time, I don’t mind if you talk AS LONG AS YOU ARE STILL BEING PRODUCTIVE
You may talk during work time (I will say when) as long as it is at a reasonable volume
DO NOT pack up early
The bell does not dismiss you--I do.
Grown ups know how to manage their time. I assume you all can handle it. Don’t make me insult your age by instituting the quiet game.
Not packing up early is my expectation (DO NOT SAY PET PEEVE!!)

13. What are some guidelines I should follow?
#7 NO ELECTRONICS
I don’t want to see them. Period.
If I do happen to catch you with one, I will give you ONE warning and then it is mine for the rest of the day.

14. What do I do when I show up?
As soon as the bell rings, you should be in your assigned seat
On your desk:
Binder
Writing utensil
COLORA sheet
On the overhead there will be the daily COLORA

15. What the heck is a COLORA?
Content Objective and Learning Objective
What should you be able to do today?

Agenda
This should be recorded on a sheet of computer paper, folded into 4 squares, on each day class meets
It will be collected after 2 weeks for completeness
Worth 8 points, 1 point/day (EASY POINTS!)
There should be NO blank squares; you MUST fill out your COLORA for the days you were absent

18. What do I do if I am absent?
Regardless of the option you choose, you MUST:

Record the COLORA on your COLORA sheet
You have ONE day to pick up your work and TWO days to turn it in to me for each day you missed
