Mr. Lies’ Procedure Page Class website:
Daily requirements: If you ever need help understanding a concept, please do not hesitate to ask. I am always happy to put in extra effort if the student is as well. Also if you ever need me to slow down during direct instruction, please let me know. Your attendance, cooperation, and positive attitude are very important for things to run smoothly. Respect needs to be a two-way street. **Tardy students will sign in daily 3 tardies = parent contact. 4+ tardies = referral
CLASSROOM PROCEDURES:
Grading Procedure:DUE TO CHANGES IN THE GRADING POLICY ALL TESTS, QUIZZES, AND GROUP WORK MUST BE COMPLETED AND TURNED IN TO RECEIVE A PASSING GRADE FOR THE QUARTER.*
Lab Procedure:Always read and follow directions carefully. Ask other lab groups for clarification before asking me. Report any accidents to me immediately. Be safe and follow all lab safety protocols.
Test/Quiz Procedure: It is disrespectful to talk while quizzes or tests are out. You are allowed to make a notecard or half sheet hand written paper of notes and formulas. You can use a periodic table and district formula sheet for tests.
Missing Work Procedure: An assignment list will be maintained and accurate records will be kept. If you miss class, check the folder for that day. These are identified with postit notes. If you miss class, you will have one week from the time to you return to class to make up any work that you missed.
Beginning Class Procedure:1)You will come into class and check the class crate table for any handouts you need to pick up. 2) You will sit in your assigned seat and copy the learning target for the day off of the smart board into your chemistry notebook. 3) You will then work on the warm-up until I finish attendance and go over the warm up. If you finish early, you will sit in your seat quietly. I will walk around and give points to those working on the warm-up and learning target.
Cell Phone Procedure: During attendance we will hold our phones up as a class and power them down. This is your final warning. Any cell phones use after this is a bag and tag with security via School Policy.
Finishing Class Procedure:During the last three minutes of class you will be presented with the class Cool Down. You are expected to stay in your seat and work on the Cool Down until the bell rings. If you finish early, you will sit in your seat quietly. I will walk around and give points to students working on the wrap-up.
Homework Procedure:Homework will be used as practice for the assessments. Therefore make sure that you turn in your homework by the due date. Late homework will only receive partial credit within a week of the original due date. It is my strong recommendation that you do not fall behind on your assignments.
Chromebook/Ipad Procedure: On any day that we are using the chromebooks/iPads, you will start the class period by taking the chromebook/iPad with your corresponding number. This is the same as your clicker number. If there is any damage on the device, inform me immediately, as you will be held responsible for damages to your device. In the last five minutes of class, be sure to return your device to its numbered slot, and plug in the device.
Pass Procedure: Pass Procedure: One student out at a time, and no passes for the first or last ten minutes of class, or during direct instruction. You will need to cut out your pass and fill out your planner for me to sign, then you can use the restroom
