Materials to Bring to Class
1. Lined Paper 2. Pen or Pencil 3. Assignments and

Journals, Assignments and Quizzes
Each student is expected to be on time, and if they are
not, they will miss the Bellringer at the beginning of the
class period which is part of their participation grade.
Each week we will do a variety of assignments and about
once every other week these will be graded and turned
in. On the day that these are graded, we will also turn in
our Bellringers and take a test. The test will be on
material that is learned over those two or three weeks.
Students usually take notes on this material.
Classroom Guidelines
Students need to come to class on time with the
materials required. Any cheating will result in an
automatic zero on the assignment or test. Students are

expected to follow these rules: 1. Be in your assigned


seat and working when the tardy bell rings. 2. Follow
directions the first time and be prepared for class. 3.
Treat each person in the room with dignity and respect.
4. Work on assignments when given time. 5. No
horseplay or whining. 6. Follow all procedure and
policies as outlined in the handbooks of the school or
district. There will be consequences for not following
these guidelines
Late Work and Make-up Work
If a student is absent then it is his/her responsibility to
find out what they missed. Students need to come
before or after school to see me about missing work or
look on the calendar on my website and print off the
assignment. Students have one week to make up missed
work. 50% will be taken off for late work. A turn-in slip
needs to be attached when late or absent work is
handed in. An assignment is late if it is not turned in
when called for in class. Exceptions can be made only in
special circumstances. If a student skips class any
assignments worked on in class that day or turned in that
day will not be entered and will result in an automatic
zero. Students can do test corrections for partial credit if
they do poorly on the test, but will not be able to do
test corrections for the term final. Extra credit is
offered if a student doesnt use their 2 hall passes/slacker
passes given at the beginning of each term. At the end of
each term there will be a final late work deadline which
will be strictly enforced. It will usually be 5 school days
before the end of the term. After this point, no late
work will be accepted for that term.
