day one

Teachers,

I have been in all of your classrooms today and saw so many good things going on:

Teachers interacting with all students, personal stories being shared, students up and about with a purpose, classroom rules being developed by both teachers and students, a warm and welcoming environment being established, goals for students, what students will learn this year, enthusiastic teachers teaching, etc.

Some things that need to be corrected:  dress code (students with holes in their jeans, students wearing head coverings), cell phones out and not for educational purposes, and students with ear buds in.  Please take care of this.

Leave your door window pane uncovered please.  Need to be able to see inside. 

Let me know if you need any resources or if any technological issues need to be addressed.

Thank you very much.  Please continue the great work you are doing.

Review handouts

There are 2 “rules” I will always follow:

1. SSA

2. Computer expectations

 

Expectations

1. Be considerate. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

2. Start assigned work when the bell rings. Usually there is a 10 minute warmup, then a daily assignment. I will grade your work throughout class.

3. Be seated and listen when I am giving instructions. If you need to ask questions, raise your hand.

4. Work on your assignment during class the entire period. If you have finished assignments, work on tutorials or sketchbooks.

5. Follow all school rules and safety rules.

6. There are district and school rules related to cell phones and electronic devices. If you violate those rules, I have the right to collect, hold, and turn the phones and devices in to an administrator. If you refuse, I will follow school and MNPS procedures and policies. Cell phones and electronic devices are easily stolen. Protecting your cell phones and electronic devices and preventing their loss or destruction is totally your responsibility. Cell phones and electronic devices may not be used when I am giving you instructions. If I see them during this time, I will ask you to give them to me.  I will usually return them to you at the end of class. Never use phones, cameras, or any digital device to create images that might make a classmate or adult uncomfortable or be considered bullying or harassment. If your use of a computer is preventing you from completing assigned work, I will turn your computer off.

7. If you have been absent, it is your responsibility to find out about missed work and make it up.

8. During this class, if you need to go to another teacher, to guidance, or any other location for school work, you need to bring a note from the person who will be supervising you requesting permission for you to leave class. You must also get permission from you academy principal.

9. Any sound that I can hear from a computer or electronic device is too loud.

10. Please do not have food or beverages near the computers. Clean up after yourself if you have food or beverages.
