Three Ringed BINDER

The assignments that are put in your binder will contain material important for students to succeed on Summative Assessments. Students are expected to complete day to day assignments. These assignments will be used for Summative Assessments that will count on your grades.

Students can earn citizenship points by doing the following:

•Helping the teacher. I can’t function without students help. There is just too much to do in the day. All students benefit from a student helping the teacher because this gives more time for the teacher to help students. Plus, I’m so thankful for students who are willing to help me. Students who help me will always be given the benefit of the doubt

•Helping another student.

•Reading orally in class.

•The students have to help sincerely. I won’t give points to students who ask for the points.

I have applied through The Granite Education Federation for field trip funds.

If I can’t get the funding will students be willing to pay the costs associated with the field trips?

Student Discipline Plan

1. The student will be given a verbal warning in class.

2. Be given a 5 to 10 minute time out in the hall. The teacher may or may not have time talk to the student in the hall. If I have time to talk to you please listen to what I have to say and don’t try to blame the problem on other students.
