  3. Etiquette • One of the keys to being successful in school is to use proper classroom etiquette and manners. • Knowing what is acceptable and what isn’t will help your success. • These rules apply to Ms. Burr’s class specifically, but are good rule to follow in general.

  4. Show up and be on time • It is important to come to school. It is highly unlikely if you miss a lot of school that you will get all the information you missed. If you legitimately miss class, talk to Ms. Burr at a convenient time about missed assignments and be sure to check her webpage first. If you skipped class, check her webpage. She will be a lot less pleasant about makeup work. Don’t ask, “Did I miss anything?” Of course you did. It is important to come to school.

  5. Electronic Devices are allowed by permission only • Turn OFF your cell phone before entering class • Not turning it off is disrespectful and impolite • Texting is simply not acceptable at any point • Remove all headphones and earbuds upon entering the room and leave them off.

  6. Learn to be respectful to others • Chatting during class discussion or while fellow students are giving oral reports • Your fellow students appreciate a quiet learning environment and resent students who continually disrupt the good manners • You are not the only one in the room.

  7. Be respectful of the entire class period Avoid Signaling, Sending Signs That Class Time is Up. Instructor pet peeves in sending such signals: • Students shutting their books loudly • Unzipping and zipping their backpacks or putting away materials before the bell rings.

  8. Participate in Class • Sitting in your seat quietly is not enough. • Ask questions. For clarification, further explanation or to enhance conversation. • Discussion of text it vital to both reading and writing skills.

  9. Study • Reading over notes taken in class and studying vocabulary words nightly is a great idea. • If you are assigned a specific part of a novel to read, read it. Don’t ask for more time or to retake reading quizzes. The answer is no.
