  4. LABS: • All students must pass a safety quiz to be able to participate in labs. Safety goggles, long pants and shoes must be worn to participate. Students not following proper safety procedures will receive a zero and removed.

  5. The Outline: • Scientific Inquiry • Classification of Matter • Atomic Structure • Periodic Table • Chemical Bonding • Reactions • Acids and Bases • Organic & Inorganic Substances • Motion and Forces • Energy Transformation • Electricity and Magnetism • Wave Characteristics

  6. Absences: IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to find out what you missed when you are absent. You may e-mail or call me if you are absent. Attendance Policy: NO CREDIT will be given for a class if you have more than five unexcused absences, even if you have a passing grade. Tardies: THREE TARDIES equal one absence.

  7. Classroom Rules: • Obey all class rules. • Be in your seat, prepared to work, when the bell rings. • Work from bell to bell. • Behavior that prevents me from teaching and prevents others from learning will not be tolerated. • Respect yourself and others. • Personal issues will be handled privately and confidentially. • Students will not be allowed to sit in class without an ID.

  8. Grading: Grades will be calculated as follows: Daily Work/Quizzes 50% Major Tests 40% 9 weeks Exams 10% Each 9 weeks grade counts 25% of the final yearly grade. The final nine weeks exam is cumulative. Any student discovered cheating will receive a grade of zero on that assignment.

  9. Procedures: • Entering: Immediately sit down. • Exiting: Wait until I tell you to pack up. NEVER LINE UP AT THE DOOR. • Pencils: Sharpen before or after class or with permission after I have finished instructions. • Restrooms or water fountain: You may not leave unless it is an emergency and then you must have a bathroom pass. • Trash: Do not get out of your seat to throw away trash.

  13. Extra Help: Please let me know if you need extra help. It helps me if I know you are coming to see me in advance.

  14. Power Hour Free science tutor: Monday and Thursday 3:50 to 4:50pm in Room 506. Make-up tests: During Power Hour in Room 506 unless other arrangements are made.
