Independent Practice Either in Class or Out of class work Work that comes after clarification and understanding of guided practice. Usually will be graded Homework Project Quiz

Lab Time Everyone will have a job Final lab reports will count as a project grade-40% Safety contract online When the timer goes off all eyes are on me and conversations come to an end.

Testing No technology out unless we are using chrome books for the test Teal time can be used for questions regarding test or for making up test. If you miss a test you are expected to make up the test the first day that you are back

Leaving the room If you need to leave the room, ask yourself “Will it distract the class if I ask to leave the class at this moment?” I do not have a certain amount of passes, but do not abuse this! When it is appropriate Ask Sign out Take the designated pass with you

Due Dates Home work will be due the morning after it is given unless otherwise specified. Late work will be 10 points off per day-cut off at 60 Assignments will be turned in to bin with period number on it

Absent work Absent work will be in your class folder in the student center Folders are the same color as the period number bin for assignment turn in. You will have 5 days to make up work If you miss a test you must take it the first day you are back

End of class Do not line up at the door and wait for the bell to ring. You will be asked to go back to your seat, and then will probably end up being the last out of the door. We will work on things until the bell rings. If we end a unit early there will always be the next unit to begin. The more we work in school, the less homework you have outside of school!
