Welcome Back


WELCOME BACK!!!
Just a few reminders for you about your math classroom

¨    Please no food or drink in the classroom!!! -- SCHOOL RULE
¨    Please respect my desk space, do not write on things that aren’t yours or look at things that do not pertain to you.  Stay off of my computer!  This is to protect the privacy of other students, teachers, and my personal things.  No sitting in my chair.  No need to check grades – it can wait!
¨    iPads – please do not abuse the privilege of having these.  Remember everyone can see things that are done on them.  When asked to put it away – do it! No “just a second” attitude.
¨    Be prepared for class.
o   Book – have it at your desk ready to go!
o   Calculator – I would recommend a TI -30XII. 
o   Notebook or paper
o   Writing Utensil!!!  Points lost if you continually don’t.
¨    Passes – please ask to use the restroom right when you walk into the classroom.  Go quickly!!  You will be counted tardy if you continually take long bathroom breaks and are late to class.  If you need to go during class please wait until all instruction is done and then ask.
¨    Grading Policy:
o   All homework assignments are worth 10pts.
o   All tests are worth 100pts (goes in the gradebook x2)
o   All Mid-Chapter Quizzes are worth 60pts.
o   Semester Test – 20% of grade.
o   Word Wednesday – 100 points at the end of the semester.
¨    All quizzes and tests can be retaken before or after school or during GRIP.
¨    All homework is generally due the following class period unless otherwise told.  Late work will be accepted until the chapter test is taken.  After that it will not be accepted.  10% off for late papers.  Stay on top of assignments during each chapter.
¨    I am usually here at school about 7:30 every morning and stay most nights until 4:00.  If you need more help outside of these times just let me know.  I am more than willing to be here to help you!
¨    Stay on top of your assignments – do not get behind!!  Make sure to ask for help if you need it.  I am more than happy to help you!!!
¨    If you ever need anything and do not want to ask in class or are gone and would like your assignment please feel free to email lharders@ginw.org

Let’s have a great year!!!
Mrs. Harders
