Green Sheet: 2nd Semester Electronic Policy : Any electronics (e.g. cell phones, IPods) must be turned off and inside your purse or backpack at all times. No matter what the reason is, electronics that are being used in anyway during class or that I see will be confiscated.

Were you Absent? It is your responsibility to look at my website for the notes, ask a friend, or come in at lunch or after school to copy the notes. Copying notes cheating!!!! All notes are due the day of your note check! You are not excused if you were absent.

Note Taking/ Group Work I expect 100% of students to take notes and follow along. No talking during this activity During group work, I expect everyone to be working/on task and helping each other. Don't ask Ms. Huls questions unless everyone in the group has the same question.

Assessments You must make up tests no later than one week after your return or you will receive a zero. You and I will schedule a time the day you return to take the assessment. When I give back your assessment, you have TWO weeks to retake it. No longer can you wait until Finals week to retake a test.

Dismissal! Clean up your area. If you were using a c calculator, put it back according to the red number on the back Throw away all trash and food. Wait until Ms. Huls dismisses you.

Any questions?
