Computer n Hall Pass Stuff

Bring your power supply to class each day.

• Yes, please.

• No worries if you forget.

If your laptop isn't working, then what?

• Work with a partner on their project (or on yours) to keep busy.

• Can you write today's assignment on paper? If so, do it.

• Quiet Voice, Quiet Body. Don't distract us.

• All of these

Computer tech doesn't come in until 11:00 AM. Your teacher won't write a pass to Room 120 before lunch.

• False

You need your hall pass to leave the room.

• Yes, even for a locker stop or a drink of water.

Your teacher will ignore many behavior issues if they're not a huge distraction.

• True. If there's a real concern, speak up, but don't call out your classmates over little things.

• False. Every issue should be addressed fully so everything is fair.

General statements like "Quiet, please" are meant to quiet the room without assigning blame.

• True. Your teacher tries not to call people out.

• False. Embarrassment is part of correction.

What is the best choice?

• Don't know what assignments you've done? Ask the teacher.

• Check PowerSchool to find out your missing grades. Do the first assignment with a zero or a blank.

I was absent. There's a zero in PowerSchool for a grade I missed.

• The zero will stay. There's nothing that can be done.

• Make up the quiz within two days of returning, and your grade will replace the zero.

In conflict with your teachers? How can you decrease the tension?

• Let their comments fall without answering back.

• Defend yourself. Make sure they know you didn't do it.
