3. What do you see to your right?
EVERYDAY Supplies
What do you see to your right?
I’m not asking a lot. See me privately if this is not possible for you on a daily basis.
I’ll provide additional resources when we need them for projects and activities.

4. Volunteer to name the four labels on every assignment?
Proper Heading
Volunteer to name the four labels on every assignment?
* 10 points OFF if not done
* NO NAME papers will be posted on the back wall by my desk and entered as a “0” until you claim it.

5. Turning in Homework All homework is due BEFORE the bell.
Turn in work to the PROPER bin labeled with your class period on it.
See LATE WORK policy in our Team Newsletter.

6. Turning in Classwork We work as a team. Our team is our row.
Last person in your row passes to the peer in front of them, and the pattern continues until the first person in the row has all the papers in that row.
The first person in the row closest to window passes to peer on right and pattern continues until peer closest to door gets ALL papers.
This person is responsible for turning in everyone’s paper.

7. Teacher Cue (ie, I need your attention)
When you see me do this…
You should be doing this (and your mouth is shut)…

8. Absent Work (Additional on Team Newsletter)
Check folder(s) from day(s) you were absent and get work if there is any.
See weekly Agenda for what you missed.
Ask peer (before bell) or check my website for details on assignment if you’re confused.
See me after school or at tutoring if clarification is needed.
Write “ABSENT” (with dates) on paper when you turn it in, so it’s NOT entered as “LATE”. You have three days to make up your work.

9. I am FAMOUS for taking cell phones, so be prepared for that.
BYOD Policy
I am FAMOUS for taking cell phones, so be prepared for that.
It should be OFF (not silent) unless I say get it out.
If it goes off, just turn it off, and go put it on my desk.
We will discuss whether it can be picked up at the end of class, end of day, or in the office (after 48 hours and $15 paid).

Submission is not about authority and it is not obedience; it is all about relationships of love and respect. ― Wm. Paul Young, The Shack

Touching ANYTHING on the teacher desk
