Entering & Exiting
When you first enter class, this is the first thing you should start working on.
Do Now
This is where you return a pencil at the end of class.
Pencil Cups
This is the gesture I use to regain the class’s attention.

You can check your grades and track your progress using this.

Before starting your Do Now, you must check the board for this.
Homework and Materials Needed
These small containers hold lab and activity supplies for each table.

Raise your hand and wait to be called on
Unless told otherwise, digital assignments should be submitted here.
Google Classroom
When the loudspeaker comes on, you must do this immediately.
Be silent and listen
If you are tardy, this is the first thing you give me before quietly taking your seat.
A pass
This is where you find extra paper copies of assignments if you were absent.
Absent Bin
If a behavior continues after a warning, you complete this to reflect on next steps.
An action plan
This is the correct way to name a digital assignment before submitting.
Period_Last Name_Assignment Name
This type of drill means we continue class, but no one leaves the room.
Shelter in place
When the bell rings to end class, you can only leave once this happens.
Everyone is seated with a clean table and I dismiss you.
When completing labs or activities, this is the rule for putting materials away.
Return everything to its original spot in the caddy
During a lockdown drill, the lights are off, the shades are down, and you must do this.
Stay silent and line up against the lockers
If you are using other tabs or off task on your Chromebook, this will happen after one warning.

Describe the procedure when leaving the classroom during lessons.
Hold up fingers for permission, look for my approval, sign out, grab a pass, and walk quietly directly to your destination
At the end of class, you have this many minutes to clean up before dismissal.
