My Expectations

I expect to give my very best to make Social Studies class interesting and stimulating. In return, I expect nothing less than the best effort from my students. This effort includes attendance, preparation for class, listening and following directions, class participation, and completing any assigned work on time

Students Rights

As a student, it is your right and privilege to learn without distraction. No one has the right to violate another person’s right to learn. Please show consideration and respect to others.

Teacher’s Rights

I have earned a license to teach and no student may interfere with my right to do my job.

Class requirements:

Bring your folder, a spiral notebook, and something to write with to class.
Something to write with means a pencil and a pen. An erasable pen is best! You need both available in class each day!
A spiral notebook with lined paper for writing assignments.
A "folder" means a folder in which all notes, assignments, quizzes, and tests are kept in an organized way. The folders with “pockets” are best.
Bring your Assignment Book to class everyday!
Be on on time, prepared, and ready to learn from the beginning to the end of class.
Raise your hand when you wish to speak and wait to be called upon.
Listen to others with courtesy and respect. I will do the same.
Treat others as you would like to be treated!
Cell Phones and iPods are NOT PERMITTED in Social Studies class. In room 301, the teacher will provide the soundtrack to Social Studies class

Tests, reports, on going class activities, and projects are considered as Major Assessments.
Quizzes, daily classwork, and short term activities are considered as Minor Assignments.
Any assigned activity such as reading your textbook to be completed to supplement the learning process outside the classroom is considered as homework.
