Rules of the Road – Classroom Management Above all else – RESPECT for one another - Everyone has something valuable to add - There are no “stupid” questions - Everyone Learns Differently – The Pace of the class will vary One person speaks at a time - Just to control the flow of conversation, I expect you to raise you hand if you have something to say Expect everyone to participate Expect everyone to participate - Individually, in a manner that is fitting and comfortable for you as an individual - Expect that you will help and mentor one another: In group work, outside the classroom If you disagree with my approach, philosophy, your personal grade, etc… - Not a problem - Lets discuss it, BUT not during class time It is YOUR responsibility to schedule time with me if you want or need additional help or assistance: - Free Periods: 1 st, 2 nd (Study Commons), 6 th - Arrive by 7:30 AM; After school until 3PM (or later if needed) We will work hard, but will focus on making sure it is a positive and to some degree fun learning experience for everyone

Quote of the Week “ All too often we are giving our young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow plants. We are stuffing their heads with the products of earlier innovation rather than teaching them to innovate. We think of the mind as a storehouse to be filled when we should be thinking of it as an instrument to be used.” (J.W. Gordon)
