  3. Expectation in the classroom • Always be punctual, wait quietly and be fully equipped ready to work • Follow instructions first time every time • No loud talking, interrupting, teasing and name-calling • Listen to others when they are talking • Stay on task and allow others to do so • Respect your equipment and exercise books - no graffiti or doodling • Keep the room tidy - tuck chairs in and don’t drop litter • All mobile phones are to be switched off before entering the class room

  4. Equipment The following must be brought to every psychology lesson without fail: • Pen, Pencil, Ruler, Eraser • Psychology Folder • Hole-punched A4 paper – (I can provide if necessary) • Textbook • Homework when required

  5. Assignments • The Psychology exam is an essay based assessment. Therefore, we will be doing a lot of writing this year. Assessments include: past exam questions, précis, quizzes, presentations, essays etc. • Assignments must be written into your organisers when it is set • All assignments must be completed on time • Assignments are due in class at the beginning of the lesson unless otherwise specified • In extenuating circumstances, if you require an extension, ask me at least 24 hrs in advance • Computer problems are no better than "the dog ate it." If you are doubtful of your luck with computers, please do your work early • Missing a lesson does not mean you miss the homework

  6. Assessments • There will be regular tests to monitor your understanding of the subject matter and progress. • At the end of each half-term there will be a formal assessment - these will be sat under exam conditions • Expect to re-sit if you have under-performed

  7. Attendance • Arrive on time to all lessons • You cannot be excused from lessons for any reason other than illness • Don’t book dentist or optician appointments during lesson time • Observe official school holidays – don’t book holidays starting before the end of term • If you know you will be missing a lesson in advance notify me – I’ll tell you the work • If for some reason you are late don’t disturb the class – sit down quietly and come and explain yourself to me at the end of the lesson • Missing a lesson does not mean you miss the homework – check with me (email) or with a friend

  8. Teacher support • I am here to support you – should you need some extra help - LET ME KNOW • Please seek clarification of any assignments or material you don’t understand • You can ask for assistance via email (k.lee@balbycarr.org.uk) • I will attempt to do my best for you – I expect the same in return

  9. No excuses My dog ate it I didn’t understandI didn't feel like doing it I forgot to take it homeI was sickI lost track of time There was a fire at our house that burned my homework It was my birthday I was watching Lost I have a solar powered calculator and it was cloudy I'm afraid I simply had better things to do I left it in my shirt and my mother put the shirt for washing. My little sister ate it I made a paper plane out of it and it got hijacked I put it in a safe, but lost the combination

  10. No excuses I had a very difficult choice to make: go to the beach with friends, or sit and do my homework. I chose to go to the beach, because my friends are more important to me than your homework will ever be. I did do it all, but before I got a chance to save, my book crashed and I lost it all. I didn't do it because I didn't want to add to my teacher’s already heavy workload. I made a paper plane out of it and it got hijacked. I put it in a safe, but lost the combination. A sudden wind blew it out of my hand and I never saw it again. The lights in our house went out, and I had to burn it to get enough light to see the fuse box. I didn't do it, because I didn't want the other kids in the class to look bad.
