Portuguese Spells SUCCESS!

What did we work on this first week in Doutora Lima's class?

• Colors, adjectives, verbs

• Mini-project about Portuguese speaking countries

• Relationships, procedures, expectations & trust

• All of them

Why is it so important to take a week to work on the 3 PILARS FOR SUCCESS?

• To create a positive and encouraging environment in the class

• To be kind and patient to one another if conflicts arise

• To help us be organized, structured in order to pass this class

• All of them

How will you be graded?

• All Classwork/practice assignments

• Projects

• Quizes &Exams

• Binder check

• All of them

How will Doutora react for the FIRST TIME you unfollow one of our social contract agreements?

• Make a point that students are not following without saying who it is.

• Put you on the spot in front of the whole class

• Call home right away

• Write you up on Aspen

• Send you to office

How will Doctor Lima react if you unfollow our Social Contract for the SECOND TIME on the same day?

• Send you out and write you up on Aspen

• Come closer to you during class and remind you to focus.

• Gives you a detention after school for 10 minutes

• Send parents email/call to check what is going on

How would Doctor Lima react if you unfollow our Social Contract for the 3TIME on the same day?

• Ask you to leave room to have a small talk at door

• Write you up on Aspen and/or Detention after school

• Put you on the SPOT in front of the class

• Call family and request a meeting with the student present to see what is going on

• Any of the above depending on how bad the behavior was.

Can I submit LATE WORK all the time and get all points? (check all that apply)

• Yes , what is important is the work not the time I sent it (duuuhh)

• It needs a time frame because Doctor Lima has deadlines for the school to show your progress

• If I come talk to her and show my reasons and they are valid and strong, yes.

• Yes there are no rules for late work

• It is negotiable because it depends if she will have time to grade them all before grades are sent home

If Doutora do the following: calls home to check in with my family about behavior/write me up on Aspen/Send me to detention..... it means I had already used my #.............. ( write a number) chances.

All of the PILARS/SOCIAL CONTRACT are a way to..... ( check all that apply)...

• Prepare me to pass this class

• Prepare me to learn more Portuguese

• Prepare me to be successful in school and this class

• Make my life miserable and hard.

The ABSOLUTELY WORST TIME TO ASK TO GO TO THE BATHROOM IS........

• End of class

• Beginning of class/ before attendance

• When she is giving us directions/lessons/going over things

• When everyone is quiet , focused and doing their work.
