How a successful classroom works

1) Everyone must arrive to class on time

2) Everyone must be prepared for class writing utensil, homework, signal and attitude

3) Only one person is allowed to talk at a time during wholeclass discussions

4) Everyone must continue working until the class has been dismissed by the teacher, NOT the bell

*bad days?

The WORST thing you can do in this class is put another student down for

not knowing an answer!!!

NEVER criticize another student in a hurtful way...they won't feel comfortable contributing in the future.

2) Share your thoughts/answers (We LOVE wrong answers they help us learn!!!)

I might be able to solve a problem on my own I will try but might need help

I can get started, but definitely need to discuss the problems with you...

I GET IT

I can handle these problems on my own

I get it I'm ready to help if you need it. If you don't ask, I am just going to offer help!
