Entering the Room Always enter the room quietly and politely Find your seat right away and start morning work/problem of the day Follow any specific directions on the board Use bathroom or sharpen pencils before class is started Turn in anything to me right away This is not a time for socializing!

Leaving the Room During class: Always ask for permission before leaving and sign out on the white board Remember to use the bathroom at the beginning or end of class and not during instruction time Asking to go get something out of your locker is unacceptable… come to class prepared! At end of class: Clean up area around your seat and return anything borrowed Pack up and form line by door QUIETLY! Wait for permission to leave classroom ALWAYS be quiet and considerate in the hallway and locker area– conduct points will be given (Locker area is not a place to goof around)

Student Corner Turn in all homework assignments on turn in shelves Find any extra handouts in Absent bin When borrowing supplies: Always return items borrowed Be respectful to these supplies Let me know when something is running low Keep cabinets organized

During Instructional time… Be respectful to others No talking while someone else is talking Only math/religion items should be on desk Only get up to get a tissue (bathroom breaks and pencil sharpening should be done before class) Don’t be disruptive Follow along with what we are doing Raise your hand ALWAYS!

During Small Group/Work time… Always use indoor voices N.O.I.S.E. system Follow whatever directions are given Stay on task (small group time is not a time to socialize!) I WILL break up groups/separate people who are not staying on task Work together as a team and cooperate Make sure every group member is putting in the same amount of effort

When done with classwork… Don’t distract others May work on math journals, math extra credit sheets, or other math related assignments May read AR book Not time to socialize or work on other homework!

Last but not least… In my class, always remember to… Smile Laugh Live the faith Challenge yourself And most importantly… LEARN!
