Active Chemistry Classroom Guidelines
This PowerPoint and a course syllabus will be posted to my
website and into LMS; you are responsible for following these
guidelines, and may be quizzed over them to ensure understanding.
Materials• Required:– Tablet Computer (after issue)–Notebook of your choice (spiral or binder)–Writing instrument (pen and pencil)
• Recommended:– Scientific Calculator (class set will be
available)–Glue sticks, scissors, and colored pencils.
Text:•The red ‘Active Chemistry’
textbook is assigned to the class.•We will rarely use a textbook;
you may check one out, or use the link on my website for the online textbook.
Grading• 60% Major Grades–Tests–Labs–Project
• 40% Daily Grades–Weekly Class work/homework–Quizzes–Lab activities
• No extra credit is available
Science test days are Mondays and
Wednesdays.
Test Retake• Any TEST that you score less than a
70 on may be retaken.• You must come to tutorials to retake
the test; you may be required to review the material before the retake.• You must retake the test within one
week of the original administration.• No other assignments are eligible for
retakes.
Lab• Students must be familiar with
lab safety standards, evidenced by returning a signed safety contract and passing the safety quiz.• Violation of lab safety
procedures could result in removal from the lab and referral to the student’s AP.
Missed Work due to absence
(per Student Handbook)
Late work•Major grades: - 10 points per
day up to 3 days, then ‘0’• Daily grades: -50 points 1 day
late, then ‘0’•MUST BE TURNED IN DURING
THE GRADING PERIOD IN WHICH IT WAS ASSIGNED!
TutorialsTutoring is available Tuesday through Thursday until 3:15. You must be in
the room by 2:40 to attend.
It is your responsibility to attend if you feel it is necessary to succeed.
Assigned Seats
• Necessary for accurate attendance and to help teacher learn students names.
• Helps maintain an orderly classroom environment.
• Easier to group for labs and to issue equipment.
• Some seating is mandatory to meet legal requirements.
• Seats will be changed periodically.
Tardies• We will follow the school tardy policy
(referral every 3rd tardy).• You should be in your assigned seat when
the tardy bell sounds.• If you arrive later than 5 minutes, or if it is
otherwise obvious you are not making an attempt to arrive on time, you will receive an office referral for non-compliance, regardless of tardy number.
• 15 minutes late is considered truant.
Rest Room Policy• Only one person is allowed out of the room at a time;
you must take the restroom pass.• Restroom pass use is only permitted 10 minutes after
the start of class, and is not permitted within 5 minutes of the end of class.
• A restroom pass does not excuse a tardy.• Restroom use should take approximately 5 minutes;
you must use the restroom in this hall (by the computer lab room 431). If you use another restroom, you are subject to a referral for being out of area.
• Excessive requests to use the restroom pass could result in a conduct grade of ‘N’.
Personal business (dropping off forms, buying parking tags, etc) must be taken care of on your
own time (before or after school, between classes, at lunch). Please do not ask to
leave class for these purposes.
For safety and to reduce distractions, table tops should be kept clear of
all backpacks and personal items.
For safety, all students should remain seated
until the their work has been checked and the dismissal bell sounds.
No food or drink is allowed in
class, including water.
No cell phone use during class ($15). If I
see it or hear it, I must confiscate it (school
board policy). No warnings!
Safety
Safety Poster• With your table partner, you will create a safety
poster about your assigned safety rule.• The poster should help the viewer understand the
rule and its importance.• The poster must have at least 4 colors (not
counting black and white).• The poster may or may not have a
picture/drawing.• Be prepared to share your poster with the class.
