  6. Coming to Attention: When I need to quiet our class, I will do the following: Say to the class, “Raise your hand if you can hear me.” When you hear that, you must: • Raise your hand • Put your eyes on speaker • Be Quiet • Be still • Listen Exiting the Language Arts Classroom: When the bell rings, that is not a signal for you to get up and leave the classroom. You must wait until I dismiss the class. When I dismiss the class, please quietly gather your things and push in your chair; check the area around you for trash and throw any trash away, and walk out the door.

(Be sure to write LATE and the date at the top of your paper.) • Late assignments are taken with a 10 point penalty for each late day. • Repeatedly late or unfinished assignments will result in working lunches, detentions, or in-team

  9. Absences • Check the binder in the front of the room labeled Make-up folder for any missed handouts, warm ups, and agenda information. • When you turn in a missed assignments, label them ABSENT at the top and turn them in to me personally. • If you miss a test or quiz, see me before or after class to schedule a time to take the test during literacy.
