8 Stamp sheet Pencil, thorough, all work shown Approximately 4 times per week Not accepted late unless due to absence

9 NOTEBOOKS: I strongly recommend a three- ring binder with filler paper. I also recommend a spiral notebook with holes that can be kept in the child’s binder. This is a great tool that helps many students keep their work organized. Many notes and examples will be taken each day. Handouts, tests, and quizzes will also be put in.. Organization is the key. The binder will be a wonderful referral tool to prepare for tests, quizzes, and quarterlies.

10 EFFORT/BEHAVIOR: I expect all of my students to give me all of their effort and attention while in my class and while doing any assignment. I also expect the respect that comes with being a teacher. They can expect the same from me. PARTICIPATION: Class participation is highly encouraged! Students benefit immensely when they take an active part in their learning.

11 PREPAREDNESS: Please come to class prepared each day. This includes book, binder, pencils, and calculator. Students will not be allowed to their lockers after the bell has rung. CLINIC: I am available for clinic on Thursday afternoons from 3:00- 3:45 and on Monday and Friday mornings during resource.

12 Tests and quizzes Announced in class and posted on Team Endeavor’s testing calendar Are given back to take home as soon as all students take them (the exceptions are district tests and Keystone Exam) Should be corrected Students should keep a grade log for themselves

13 Make-Up Policy PLEASE check my website when you miss class. You can download the notes and homework right from home. Come in RA to get anything else that might have been handed out. Schedule a day and time to make up any test or quiz that you may have missed.
