students will leave the test face down until the teacher says they can start. When
the teacher says they can begin, the student will then flip the test over and quietly
work on their test. When the student is done with their test, they will quietly stand
up, turn the test in to the designated spot and then return to their desk. If there are
still other students working on their test, the student will follow the finishing early

teacher their undivided attention.
Finding Make-up Work
To find make-up work, the student will, at the beginning of class, look in the
folder labeled with the day they missed. They will then pull one copy of all the
papers that are in that folder. If the student has any questions about the work, they
will ask the teacher after class.
Passing Out Graded Papers
The teacher will call out the name on the paper. The student will answer when
their name is called so that the teacher can hand the papers back more efficiently.
The teacher will then place the students paper face down on their desk.
Passing Out Papers For Notes

group. The student will then take one and pass the rest to the next student. If there
are any extra copies, one student from each row or group will place them on the
shared materials desk.

The teacher will inform the students when it is time to begin the exit procedure.
The students will pick up the trash around them, return any borrowed materials,
and put the desks back to their original starting position if they were moved. The

will wait until the teacher dismisses them.

the teacher about why he/she was late and accept any consequences. The student

wish to turn in. The student will then follow the turning in homework procedure.

together and get into their assigned groups. The teacher will then instruct the
students on their group work. When the teacher says they can begin, the students
will then begin working on their assignment.
Working in Groups
After the teacher gives the instructions on the group activity, the students will
actively participate in the group activity. When it is time to turn in the project, the
students will follow the turning in homework procedure.

him/her and will discuss only the assignment.

destination and departure time written on it. The student is to go directly to their
destination. If the student is not allowed to leave, they will accept the decision.
Announcement Procedure
When there is an announcement, the students will come to attention. They will
listen to the announcement. Once the announcement is over, the students will
return to work.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
In the case that parental conference is necessary, the teacher will call the parents
and set up a conference that is convenient for the teacher and parents. The teacher
will prepare for the meeting with notes and evidence. When the parents arrive, the
teacher will greet them at the door. The teacher will then sit down will the child
and parents and start with a positive comment about the child. The teacher will
then explain the problem and ask for the parents input. Together all parties
involved will form a plan to deal with the situation. At the end of the meeting, the
teacher will thank the parents for their help and cooperation.
Disciplinary Procedure
In the event of a disciplinary problem, the student will ask the student what rule
they have broken. For the first offence, give the student a verbal warning. If the
problem continues, give the student an appropriate consequence. If the problem
persists through multiple days, ask the student to stay after class and talk with
them about the problem. The teacher will also call the parents if necessary.

students, parents, and coworkers. My classroom policies will include: no cell
phone use in the classroom, no snacks in the classroom, and students to be
