Mr. Hares Class Rules of Engagement

Mr. Hare Classroom Syllabus & Rules and Expectations Be Ready Before the bell rings: Find/Stay in your seat Attention on Bellringer Binder, text, Homework, pencils...on desk Start on Bellringer Book bags under desk Cell phones in backpack; TURNED OFF (no exceptions) Be Responsible You are responsible for your learning the objectives of the class If you are absent from class, contact me and make arrangements to obtain assignments If tardy, bring pass SEE POLICY IN STUDENT HANDBOOK Keep yourself eligible for extra curricular activities by completing and turning in homework on time! School determines eligibility Monday morning @ 8:00, assignment turned in after FRIDAY @ 3:40 WILL NOT BE GRADED AND A ZERO PLACED IN IC Be Respectful Always conduct yourself in a professional/business-like manner Stay in your seats at all times. Raise hand, be recognized then respond. When the teacher, a classmate or visitor addresses the class, show respect by listening. Drink Water (clear bottles only), but No Snacks; gum, liquids, candy etc… out of concern for complying with school policy, federal/state law, and keeping carpet, computers and personal belongings safe and the class clean. No perfumed lotions out of concern for potential allergies or asthma Pencils and Pens don’t make noises when used properly and are not used to create a distraction or losing focus. Know your Space in the Classroom Desk area Storage Room Teacher Area Whiteboard/Chalkboard Areas Stay on Task Demonstrate observable actions showing you are on task. Use class time as directed; follow lesson, participate and work efficiently to finish any and all assignments Stay in your seats and work up until the bell rings, then pack your belongings and leave your area as neat and clean as you found it at the beginning of class. Ask Questions Always seek clarification to anything that is not crystal clear. If you have a question someone else has the same question. The brave and responsible individual overcomes doubt and seeks clarification. Grading: Summative is 60% of your grade, which includes: Tests Quizzes Projects Formative is 40% of your grade, which includes: Homework Participation Grading Points: Tests Tests are given at regular intervals to measure progress throughout the year. At times, upon teacher discretion, you may be given the opportunity to correct mistakes on your graded exam for half credit. Quizzes – Quizzing works to prepare you for a Test and to help you understand your grasp of covered material. As such, you are strongly encouraged to use your handwritten notes from your Math Notebook while taking the quiz. Daily work- Take notes! You are allowed to use your notes during quizzes. Read directions on handouts carefully! Directions contain important information. When assigned, homework is due at beginning of next class unless otherwise scheduled. Your completed work will be checked at the door as you arrive. IF not completed you must report to Cardinal Time; no exceptions. Homework must be labeled (name, chapter, page, problems assigned), legible, neat and on paper with clean edges. Homework turned in late is a zero, unless prior arrangements have been made. Turning in, even if late maintains your eligibility for extra curricular activities. When instructed you are expected to work alone, with a partner or as a group. Homework, quizzes and tests are NOT to be thrown away. See details below under Notebook section. NOTEBOOK You will maintain a chronological 3-Ring binder with sections Bellringer Power Up Score Sheet Homework Quizzes Tests Journal (May be separate book) NOTHING is to be thrown away. Once a Chapter is complete you may leave your papers at home in an organized storage for future reference in preparation of Exams and/or Final Exam. Let me stress that these papers are your study guide for the Exams and/or Final Exam, so please develop an organizational system that will assist you in their preparation. When absent you have two days to make up missing work before its considered late; YOU MUST TAKE THE INITIATIVE after an absence. Resources: Saxon Math, 2007 edition; provided by CMS Khan Academy mrmathhare.blogspot.com (Weekly Lesson Plans, Announcements, my notes...) Additional resources as year progresses Help is Available: Success in math is easy to achieve! Take good notes in class, use class time to complete practice problems, turn in completed work on time, ask questions, study a little each night. For additional help: Class Structure: Subject to change, but here is the general organization for our class time: Bellringer check Power Up check Mental Math check Homework check New Lesson check for questions Practice together Assess check for comprehension, accuracy Practice individual (homework) On most days, if time is used wisely, individual practice problems should be completed before end of class! NO HOMEWORK! In general, to fully comply with School Safety Protocol, there are no passes given to leave class. Students should make the most of the 5 minute passing periods in order to stay in class for the whole period. Open Classroom: Parents, guardians, and others are welcome to visit our classroom! To visit, please contact me via email (matthew.hare@chadronschools.net) and Mr. Dressel (nichlas.dressel@chadronschools.net) to notify us of the day you will visit.
