When you come to this class, you should:

The best time to take care of personal needs, i.e., borrow/sharpen a pencil, get tissue, use hand sanitizer, or turn in an assignment, is:

• At the beginning of class, during bell ringer time BEFORE I start teaching; or during independent or group work time

• While I am teaching or leading a discussion.

• It is always okay to get out of your seat to get what you need because your needs are important too.

  
  

When turning in a paper assignment, you should:

• Place it neatly in your class period tray located in the turn in station.

• Hand it directly to me to make sure it does not get lost.

• Toss it on the table in the back corner of the room.

If you borrow a pencil, you should leave your id in the pencil pouch.

Class has started, and I am taking attendance. You need to go to the nurse, but it's not an emergency. You should:

• Fill out a nurse request slip and place it on my rolling desk.

• Stand by my desk, wait quietly for me to finish attendance, and then ask to go to the nurse.

• Interrupt me to ask to go to the nurse because your health and well being come first.

Why is it not appropriate to yell across the room at your friends in a classroom setting?
