English classroom rules / expectations – generated by students Fall Semester 2003

 

  1. Learning Environment:

Students must help maintain a positive environment in which to learn.  This means helping to ensure that there are minimal disruptions, and that all students have a right to be able to learn.  Distraction that interferes with the learning process will not be tolerated and will be dealt with immediately.

 

  1. Respect:

Everyone will show respect toward other people in the room.  This includes respecting their property, their opinion, and their dignity.  Property and equipment of the school district and Mr. B is included.

 

  1. Honesty (No spin zone) / cooperation:

Students will work to cooperate and help each other out when they can.  IF there are conflicts, they will be dealt with quickly and fairly.  Honesty is crucial to a good, positive classroom situation.

 

      SPECIFIC GUIDELINES:

-         gum is ok as long as people don’t see it or have to deal with it. Also, gum will be outlawed once I start finding it on the floor and on desks

-         water (nothing else) is ok when in sealable container – spills will be taken care of by people involved immediately

-         no seating charts unless necessary to separate someone

-         lectures will be limited and short (when possible)

-         no profanity, reference to drugs, alcohol, parties, etc…

-         c.d. players o.k. as long a decibel level is low and they are only used when

given the o.k. by Mr. B.

 

I have been given the opportunity for feedback, and I will follow the rules and procedures stated above.  I have read and discussed them, and I understand all rules and expectations for room 206, as well as other settings (on field trips, buses, etc…) I know that after a verbal warning and basic adjustments are made, a phone call will be made home before this becomes an administrative concern.
