 Remove distractions  Watch the video  Take notes ◦ Vocab ◦ Example problems ◦ You try problems ◦ Write down any questions you may have.

 If you did NOT watch the video… ◦ Remove yourself to the video viewing table and start doing your homework.  In seat, ready to go when bell rings ◦ Pencil, notes out, ready to start.  SQRP time (super quick review and practice) ◦ 2-3 problems to start the day  Questions  Note check as you start working on your classwork.

 Get to it…  Ask for help from me, your table mates, another table.  When you are complete, grab and answer key and check your answers.  Correct/get clarification on the ones you missed!!!  Put a grade on it and turn it in… turning it in means you understand the material.

 There will always be extra credit available if you are done early. ◦ Book work ◦ Worksheets filed at the back of the class ◦ Etc.

 Then, repeat back to step 1!

 Level 1: Direct Note-Taking ◦ Pause, Write, Listen  Focus: Transferring the notes/diagrams/images from the lecture video to your notebook. Using these notes as reinforcement of the material as you watch the video in small segments, utilizing the pause button to keep the learning self paced.

 Level 2: Key Point Note-Taking ◦ Listen/Write, Pause  Focus: Transferring the most important information or key points from the lecture video to your notebook. A large portion of the note-taking can happen while the lecture video is playing. Some information that is previous knowledge may be left out of your notes as well as additional examples or explanation if the student feels that they have mastered the topic. The pause button can be used if necessary to keep the learning self paced.

 Level 3: In-Line Summarizing ◦ Listen/Write  Focus: High level “in-line” note-taking is for the advanced learner. The student will be summarizing the lecture content while it is being delivered and adding to those notes at the end of the lecture video if additions are needed.

 You must take notes.  If you do not watch the video (if you have not taken notes) ◦ You must watch the video in class before starting your class work. ◦ Remove yourself to the video viewing table. ◦ Do not wait for me to move you… just go.  Note check each day: 5 points. ◦ 2.5 points for watching in class.

 Each Lesson has 1-2 ~10-15 minute videos.  I will be VERY clear what I want you to watch each evening.  Excuses aren’t acceptable when you get to class. If you had problems viewing the video I expect communication from you so I can help you fix it. ◦

 You must grade your class work before turning it in. ◦ Use a pen/marker… something other than your pencil. ◦ The grade must be visible on top of your paper. ◦ You may correct anything you missed before turning in.  Ungraded class work will be assigned a grade of 7/10.  I will spot check class work. ◦ If you give yourself credit for incorrect work, you will be assigned a grade of 7/10.

 Graded Class work… ◦ Just so we are on the same page. If you get 100% on your class work and turn it in, that means you understand it. ◦ If you do not understand it, you should keep working until you do. I would rather something is late with complete understanding than on time without.

 You will be grouped together in tables of 2-3.  There will be a seating chart.  Seating will be changed as necessary.

 Time in class is time on task. ◦ 1 warning then a referral.  If you need a quiet place to work, I can arrange that for you.  You may bring music to listen to with headphones, music is not allowed to be on a phone.
