Policy about electronic devices  There WILL be times that we will utilize our electronic devices (phones, ipods, tablets, etc.) in class as part of our Math lesson.  Using your electronic device at a time or for a purpose other than as directed will result in disciplinary action.  Be familiar with the school BYOT policy!!

What to do if you finish before others:  Let me check your work.  Quietly, find something else to work on. (This does not mean take a nap. I always have plenty of work for you if you do not have any.) I would suggest having a book with you to read.
