Classroom Expectations, Guidelines, and Procedures
This handout is intended to provide with clarity the
 expectations and guidelines necessary to maintain 
 a favorable teaching  environment.

Rules for Mr. Cap's classroom:

 Students must be in their seat before the bell rings
 and begin "doing" history.

Ways of "doing" history.

    1.  Open textbook and read the lesson for 
                this week.

    2.  Complete homework assignment due
     Wednesday.  See Lesson Plan for assignment.

    3.  Look at pictures and maps in textbook.

 Students must stay in their seats at all times.

 Students must bring with them to class everyday
 their three ring binder, paper,  pen, pencil and
 textbook.

 Students must come to class "prepared for the
 day."  Homework completed, chapter reading
 completed etc.

 Students may not interrupt  the teacher in any way.
If a student has a question they must raise their hand
and be recognized by  the teacher before they  ask
the question.

 Students will not be allowed to  chew gum or eat
 food or candy or drink beverages of any type. 
 Water is allowed.

 Homework is due every Wednesday.

If the homework is corrected in class and a student
forgets  to bring it to class then the assignment is
given a 0%.  If  the homework is not corrected in
class then the assignment receives a 10% deduction
for every day that it's late.  See Homework Example.

 Students may not work on homework or another
 subject in class unless permission is granted.

 Quizzes and 3 & 6 Week Exams.  Students may 
 use their "handwritten" notes for all quizzes and 
 all exams except for the Quarter Final and other
 pop quizzes Mr. Cap decides to give.  You cannot
 have typed notes of any type nor use your
 neighbor's notes for quizzes and tests.

Students must  not talk and must be respectful
 during morning pledges, devotions and prayer.

 Students who are not  in their seat, who don't bring
their supplies, or need to go to    their locker, or
have to go to the bathroom, or interrupt the teacher,
or chew gum, etc., will be " marked up "  in the
grade book.  Four mark ups, for any reason, during
a  quarter, the student is assigned detention hall.
Each quarter a clean slate will  be given to each
student.

 Students may appeal to Mr. Cap  their "markup"
after class or after school.  Any time a student
begs to appeal during class another mark up will
be given.
 

 Mr. Cap
