Grading Procedures
Class tally system Follow beginning of class procedures, give
me your attention when I ask for it, etc.
Behavior
Class Dojo I will use Class Dojo to keep track of your
behavior throughout the class period. If you receive 5 positive points during the week,
you will earn a reward on Friday. You and your parents can see your points each
week. I will give you student and parent codes. Points start over each week. I will give 5 bonus points on a test if your parent
registers for Class Dojo.
Behavior
Better Choices Sheets will be used for excessive rule violations If negative behavior (talking, throwing, out of
seat) continues after filling out a better choices sheet, I will call a parent.
If a student is asked to fill out a Better Choices Sheet more than 4 times in one class period, I will write an office referral for “multiple classroom infractions”.
Behavior
If Class Dojo, the Better Choices Sheets, and parent phone calls are not effective, I will resort to an office referral.
Certain behaviors directly result in an office referral:
4th tardy Profanity Fighting Disrespect toward teacher
Behavior
1. Respect all people and property.
2. Come to class prepared and on time.
Class Rules
Tardies do not start over 2nd nine weeks. I will show you how many tardies you have
according to my computer records. You receive an office referral for every four
tardies. Be on time to class. It is disruptive and
distracting (even if you come in quietly) when you are tardy, so we need to limit the distractions as much as possible.
Tardy

Take the information sheet home to your parents and encourage them to sign up for Remind 101, too!
