discussion time is for us as a class to learn. Please be quiet and attentive until given an opportunity to speak. I welcome your participation, as long as you are courteous to your classmates and me. You are not allowed to surf the internet, or play games unless you have received permission. See below for consequences. At the end of the hour, log off your computer, clean up around your area, and wait at your seat until the bell rings. I dismiss you, not the bell. Please push in your chair before leaving.
Consequences:
Step 1: Step 2: You will receive a warning for any behaviors that are unacceptable. If you do not alter your behavior, you will be asked to sit at a table away from the computers. You will not have computer access for the remainder of the hour. Step 3: If the behavior is still not corrected, then I will call your parents and request a meeting. I also may write a referral to your principal. Step 4: You are sent to the office. If the behavior is more severe, I reserve the right to go immediately to step 4.
