I would appreciate everyone showing up on time and ready to go when the bell rings. I like to make class as real world as possible. Lateness is not tolerated in the real world! I always get paid back when time is taken away from me!
There will be no assigned seating unless you choose your classroom buddies unwisely.
English only please!
It is still the teachers job to dismiss the class on time. Thanks for leaving that one up to me!
Always bring something to read or to plan with for the down times.
Digital devices (phones, ipods, MP3 players) will be used with permission only. Leave them in your bag until you have asked permission.
Cell phones are to be turned to silent mode and will be used for family emergencies only.
At the end of the day, I would appreciate the last class resetting chairs etc.
I don't mind you snacking in class, but pick up after yourself. I am not your mother!
If you are absent, you will seek me out for make up work and not the other way around.
