6. Agendas
Your agenda is VERY important and you should take VERY good care of it. (You only get one!)
Take a moment right now to write your first AND last name on the first page. Also, write my name in the space provided for your Homeroom Teacher-Mrs. Crawford
You can also write your Student ID Number (for lunch/library), your locker #, and your combination.
Every day when you arrive to class, you need to take out your agenda and write down the homework you see on the board. If there is no homework you must write “None”
Let’s take a moment to look at our agendas.

7. LUNCH PROCEDURES
Go to the bathroom on our hall or in front of the cafeteria and wash up. Walk SILENTLY to the lunchroom door .
Enter the lunchroom as a class and enter only one line, so make sure you know your food choice!

We will sit as a class at assigned tables.
Bring ID #s if you are buying your lunch.

11. Procedures for Entering the Classroom
Line up outside the door and remain totally silent. Once everyone is quiet, then you will be allowed to enter the room. NEVER enter the classroom unless Mrs. Crawford is in the room OR unless you’ve been given permission by a teacher.
Take your agenda out of your binder and write down any homework that is on the board – which will be every day. 
If you have homework to turn in, place it in the homework tray (look for your class period) immediately.
Leave the agenda open for Mrs. Crawford.
Begin warm-up on the board and do not talk.

12. Procedures for End of Period Class Dismissal
Be sure you have written down homework at the end of the period.
When the teacher says that it’s okay, students will be dismissed by groups, starting with the group closest to the door.
You are NOT to pack up until Mrs. Crawford says to do so – especially if we are finishing up with class when the bell rings.

13. Procedures for Listening to and Responding to Questions
While the teacher or another student has the floor, then everyone else in the room will be listening quietly to the speaker.
If you have a response to a question that was asked, then you will raise your hand and wait quietly to be called on.
Do not call out answers or shout out during class without permission – it’s rude!

14. Procedures for Students Who Need to Leave Seat
Bathroom
Only if it’s an emergency are you allowed to use the restroom during class. There are many breaks throughout the day where you’ll have the opportunity… Use them! You must ask to be excused to the restroom, though, and the teacher will decide.
Tissue
If you need a tissue, please get up and quietly go to the back of the room to get one. You may step out into the hall to blow your nose if necessary so that it doesn’t disturb others.
Trash
Unless it’s on fire, it can wait to be thrown away when class is over.

15. Procedures for Make-Up Work
Located near my desk is a binder. All extra copies are placed in the binder. If you are absent, you need to check the binder for any papers and ask Mrs. Crawford about any notes that we took.
Upon return to school, it is YOUR responsibility to get your make-up work – no one else’s!
If you have questions about what you missed, please ask your classmates, and if you still have questions, then come see me.

16. Procedures for Turning in Assignments
Assignments and homework (other than Thinkmarks) will be turned in to the homework tray by the door.
Simply find your class period’s tray and place your paper there.
BE SURE YOU NAMED YOUR PAPER!

17. Procedures for Handing Back Graded Papers
I will hand back papers during either the first 5 minutes or last 5 minutes of class.
Put your graded paper in your binder. It is best to have a separate folder for graded work.

18. Procedures for Heading of Papers
All papers that you turn in should have the same heading, which is located in the upper right corners of your papers.
Any paper handed in without a name automatically loses 10 points and will receive no sympathy!
Name
Date
Period

19. Procedures for Finishing Work Early
If you finish your work early, then you are to take out your Independent Reading Book (IRB) and sit quietly, reading it until you are given other instructions.
I will provide extra activities for you to choose to work on if you finish early.

20. Mrs. Crawford’s Library
You have the opportunity to check-out books from my library on a daily basis. You will receive a Classroom Library Card and will use it to check-out books if you choose to do so. You must keep up with your library card all year.

21. Student Handbook
Turn to page 12 of your student handbook located in the front of your agenda.
Follow along as we read through some important information and HIGHLIGHT what Mrs. Crawford instructs you mark.
