    Classroom Procedures

    Daily Routine (based on block schedule and can be modified for a regularschedule)1. Students will come in and put their completed homework (if due that day) in thebasket designated for their class period.

    2.

    Once homework is turned in, students will take their seats and read silently (abook of their choosing) for ten minutes.3. I will announce that the ten minutes is finished and students will begin work onthe daily journal topic or free write for ten minutes.

    4. Once the ten minutes is finished, students will be given the chance to share whatthey wrote and we will discuss the topic.

    5. After the discussion (depending on what we are working on): I will begin the lecture. Pass out worksheet(s) or a vocabulary packet. Pass out test booklets. Start the film.

    Ask someone to volunteer to start the in class reading. Have students break into groups to work on project/discuss theassigned reading.

    6. Two or three minutes before the bell rings, I will ask students to clean up andscraps or trash on the floor.

    School Supplies

    1. Each student will be provided a composition notebook for their daily journals, whichI will collect at random each week.

    2. Art supplies such as boxes colored pencils, markers, and crayons will be numberedand checked out to students then collected at the end of the period.

    3. Pens and pencils will be kept in bins. Students can use them as long as they give somefor of collateral.

    4. Lined paper will be provided if needed, but only enough sheets to complete theassignment they are working on in my class.

    Late Work

    1. Late work will not be accepted, unless it is late due to a medical emergency whichcan be proven with doctors note. Failure to turn in assignments on time will result in azero for that assignment.

    Absences

    1. Absences will result in the loss of five participation points each day absent.

    Make Up Work

    1. A folder listing the assignments for each week will be kept by the door. Students cancheck what they need and I will make a packet for them.2. Make Up Work will only be given for excused absences which will require a notefrom a parent, doctor, or in event of the death of a family member a copy of the funeral

    pamphlet.

    Bathroom Use

    1. Only one student can go at a time, unless it is an emergency.2. A pass will be available for students to take as long as they signal to me that they aregoing.

    3. In the event of an emergency (vomit, etc) the student does not need to ask to go.

    Extra Credit

    Four extra credit assignments will be given over the course of the school year.They will be worth 15 points each.

    Students who volunteer to read will be given extra credit; 1 to 8 points dependingon the amount of reading and if they use an accent.

    Good Behavior

    Students will be given a classroom dollar for good behavior at the end of each week. At

    the end of the year, they will be able to purchase something from the classroom store. I

    will have books and art/school supplies available forpurchase.

    If students are putting forth an effort, they will be given projects rather than essays to

    show their understanding. They will also be rewarded with fun activities that relate to thecontent, i.e. a themed party such as a jazz party based on The Great Gatsby (alcohol freeof course!)

    Unacceptable Behavior

    If a student disrupts class, they will not receive the classroom dollar for the week andwill suffer the consequences listed above, based on what they have done and the severity

    of their indiscretion.

    Students who do not turn in their assignments will be given an additional assignment,

    worth fewer points, that must be completed during the class period. This assignment will

    be completed on review game days, and other fun activity days. Students who do notwork, will not be allowed to participate in fun activities.
