O-drive – always label these assignments with your name (first and last) and the assignment name and always save to the correct folder

Class Rules

• Hall Passes – Administration has instructed that we strictly follow a policy of 2 hall passes per student per 9 week period • A hall pass consists of anything you ask to leave the class for

(bathroom, locker, office, etc.) with only a few exceptions• Exceptions – medical issues such as illness (emergency) or need of

medication from the office will not count against you – class needs such as visiting the library for class related needs will not require a hall pass • Hall passes must be limited to 5 minutes or less

Class rules

• When there are announcements being made, the class must be silent (especially beginning and end of the day)• When you enter the class, get your materials, take your seat and read the

PowerPoint for instructions or the class schedule• Before you leave, clean your area and push your chair in – Please do not

move the desks unless directed to for an activity• Students will remain in their seats until the bell dismisses class• A tardy will be given if you are not in the room before the bell rings• Eating and drinking in class will be permitted unless it becomes a burden on

the teaching or janitorial staff – It is the students’ responsibility to maintain eating and drinking privileges

Class Rules

• All graded work must be kept (especially tests) – If grades are misplaced, missing, or get deleted, this is the only way to be certain that you get the grade deserved – If you choose to throw materials away, you may be required to redo the grade if any of the above occur or be awarded a 0• Grades missed due to unexcused absences or suspension will not be

allowed to be made up – these missed assignments will receive a 0• If you have an excused absence, it is your responsibility to collect and

make up any missed work

Class Rules

• Academic dishonesty, as described in your student handbook, will result in a 0 for the assignment, a referral to administration, a phone call to a parent or guardian, and the completion of the assignment in ICE• Respect really is key in our class!!! Students will always be respectful

of the rights and opinions of others• Discovery rules and procedures will be discussed separately

tomorrow – You will be required to copy Discovery policies and keep them in you binders – brig a pen or pencil and paper tomorrow

Class Rules

• I understand that everyone has bad days. Let me know before an issue arises. Just don’t let me know that everyday is a bad one…optimism is absolutely appreciated. I will do my best to greet you with a smile every day as well.• The seating chart will be used until I have learned everyone’s names –

probably two weeks

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device)

• This policy will allow students to use their devices to access the internet to further class activities• Devices may be out in our class only when I have announced that they

may be used• They are not to be out for “checking the time” – there is a clock on

the wall• Devices may not be used for texting, making calls, playing games, or

any activities that distracts others in class• Devices should never be out or accessed during lectures, group

discussions, tests, or videos

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device)

• Devices may NEVER be out during a test – If a device is visible/accessed during a test, you will receive a zero on the test• If a phone rings during class, it will be taken• If your device is taken during class and you respectfully relinquish it, it

will be returned at the end of class• If any other disciplinary actions are required when the device is

confiscated, it will be sent to the office – school confiscation policies will then apply• If I must take your device regularly, I will send it to the office as well

School rules for phone confiscation (when sent to the office)• 1st offense will receive a warning and confiscation of devices, only to

be returned at the end of the day by the administration• 2nd-3rd offense will receive a warning and confiscation of devices, only

to be returned at the end of the day by the administration to a parent or guardian• 4th offense will receive confiscation of the devices, only to be

returned at the end of the school year by the administration to a parent or guardian

Grading – Humanities and Sociology• Grades will be divided between Participation, homework, unit tests,

and projects• At the end of the semester there will be a cumulative final exam that

includes all of your studies from throughout the year. Take good notes and keep them along with all unit tests that you take!

Grading – Humanities and Sociology• Binder checks are essential/substantial parts of your grade…keep up

with notes and class work. Notes must be taken in Cornell style. A worksheet and example are found on my teacher webpage.• Participation will be based upon your being prepared for class. This

means having materials and being prepared to discuss materials. Students will participate to the best of their abilities in each day’s lesson.

Grading – American Cinema

• Each until will begin with a short session of notes – I expect these to be 45 minutes at maximum – you are required to take these notes for use in movie reflections and the final exam• Each unit will consist of 2-5 movies – for each movie you will be

required to write a reflection – the model worksheet should be used and will be on my teacher website and can be printed from there – we will look at this more closely next week• Your binders will be checked periodically (dates will be announced) –

In these checks, you will receive a grade for the notes taken as well as for each movie reflection
