More Questions!
How will I be graded? 54%- Exits Tickets, Quizzes, Homework,
etc. 36%- Tests, Projects, etc. 10%- Midterm Exam
Last Question: Who is this lady standing at the front of
my class?!

Students will be rewarded individually for going above and beyond, making good improvement, or being a good Samaritan.
BRAIN BREAK!!!
Classroom Procedures A procedure is the way we do things.
It is not a rule, so you will not be punished or rewarded for doing it. It’s just how we make this classroom run!
To make things work we must follow procedures. For example: To open your locker, you have to select your
combination as directed by the lock manufacturer. To cook a delicious meal, you need to follow the steps
in the recipe. To place a call on your phone, you need to dial the
number in the right order. The Classroom is no different. To learn, we must
have procedures!
Entrance Enter QUIETLY Sit in you assigned seat Take out materials Review daily agenda Begin assigned Do Now!
Getting Your Attention There will be times when you will be
working in groups or individually and I will need the attention of the class.
I will: Raise my Hand in the air
You will: Get quiet Raise your hand and face me Wait for instructions
Instructional Time Please raise your hand when you have a
question and response. Do not talk while anyone else is talking Please do not interrupt with unrelated
questions Follow Instructions completely before
beginning your task
Finishing Classwork Early You may quietly read a book You may work on other assignments
FOR THIS COURSE or make-up work You may ask for and work on extra
credit You may NOT talk or be out of your seat.
Exiting Before leaving class, students will receive
questions for an Exit Ticket to gauge comprehension on the day’s objective.
Exit tickets will be completed in a separate notebook from the one the student takes notes in.
Ms. Panek will collect Exit Ticket Notebooks as students are leaving the room.
Bathroom
Fill out all the necessary info on a pass and wait for me to come over and sign it
I may ask you to wait until a more convenient time to ask again NOTE: If it is an emergency please just
leave the room and explain later, I would hate for anyone to get sick in class!
Moving Around the Room When Ms. Panek is instructing or during a
class discussion: Do not get up and move around the room. Raise your hand and ask to sharpen a pencil,
get a tissue, etc. During Class Work:
You may get up to sharpen a pencil, get a tissue, etc. without asking NOTE: THIS IS A PRIVALAGE. DO NOT ABUSE IT!
(i.e. Talking to people on the way, being disruptive, etc.)
Absences Check with me AFTER class or during
patio time to see if you have make up work.
I will give you a date that all back work must be turned in by.
I may have a copy of the notes or find a friend to get the notes from.
Have a Wonderful Year! I KNOW that each and every one of you
has what it takes to succeed in this class, and I hope that you adapt the same attitude!
