Rules that will be on your Rule Quiz

Here are the 4 class rules that will be on your quiz along with info in the course overview.


Mrs. Jenkins FOUR Classroom Rules

1) Arrive on time and ready to LEARN at bell
• In assigned seat doing journal opening
• Late arrivals will all need a valid pass
2) Follow School Rules in Class
• No gum
• No cell phones
• Dress code
• Language
• Respect for others, etc.
3) Use class time appropriately
• Do not work on HW for other classes/crosswords/etc.
• Complete the task at hand
• Use class time to get the extra help/clarification you need from the teacher
• Collaborate responsibly with your peers as this is the best way for some to learn
4) Come to class prepared
• Bathroom emergencies are dealt with
• You have your book every day (preparedness may be a HW assignment at random)
• Your “personal” business with Jane Towle, friends, Mrs. Sinnott and others are dealt with ahead of time and do not need to be dealt with in class
• No copying or finishing HW while in class, if I see you working on it in class the day it is due it is a ZERO
