21. So what did we do yesterday?
Go to Miss Fox’s website
Foxenglish1.weebly.com
Go to the “Sick Work” tab to see what you missed
IMPORTANT: You have TWO days to make-up missed work. If you do not make-up the work within the two days you will get behind in both class work and homework assignments which will dramatically effect your grade. You have many resources to assist you so jump on it!

22. Turning in Papers
I will come by and pick up your homework assignments or any other assignments needed to be turned in
This way I can check and see if your homework is completed and give out pink slips accordingly
In class work turn into the drawer by my desk

23. Bathroom Pass
One bathroom pass… therefore one person can leave the classroom at a time to use the restroom
Sign out on the bathroom pass form near the door so if there is any kind of emergency I know of your whereabouts

24. Class Dismissal Do not start packing up prior to the bell.
My goal is to give you the last three minutes of every class to pack-up, ask questions, or quietly talk to friends
Once I say “have a nice day” you are free to gather your things
YOU MUST BE IN A SEAT UNTIL THE BELL RINGS

25. I truly believe in your potential and I know that you have the ability to succeed!
Get ready for an awesome year! – Ms. Fox
