This classroom management plan outlines Amy's expectations for her science class. She will focus on pursuing knowledge through asking questions and collaboration. Students are expected to respect others, be prepared, on time, and focus on class without distractions. Procedures are outlined for arriving late, bathroom breaks, problems, absences, assignments, and lab safety. Amy will engage students through lectures, labs, questions, homework and exams. Consequences for misbehavior are also detailed.
![Statement of Purpose
In antiquity, science meant knowledge. In modern times, science also mean the
pursuit of knowledge1. And just as in the pursuit of happiness you will
probably never be 100% happy, in this class no one is 100% knowledgeable and
you won’t be when you leave.
We ask questions. We say when we don’t understand something when we
don’t. We explain and shine when we do. We learn new languages, use art and
technology, build things, strive to be our best and recognize everyone has
experiences and strengths, that when combined are powerful.
At the end of this course, every student should be proud of their effort,
confident in their abilities and pursue knowledge for the rest of their lives.

- 6. Rules 1. Respect the feelings, property and space of your classmates and teacher. 2. Be prepared for class. Have a writing instrument, textbooks, notebook and assignments complete. 3. Be on time. 4. Suspend your social life. No tech, no side conversations. 5. No Food, No Candy/Gum; Water is only allowed beverage
- 7. Procedures At the start of class…… Enter the classroom on time. Drop homework in basket. Take your assigned seat. Check the board. Observe/record assignment and key dates (quizzes, tests); start on stage ‘1’ activity. If you’ve arrived without your writing tools or texts, you may borrow and return from the end of class.
- 8. Procedures If you are avoidably late…… Enter quietly. Be respectful of your classmates and teacher. If you have a pass, please place on my desk. If not, we can discuss after class. Try to catch up on with material on your own or after class – not by interrupting others.
- 9. Procedures If you really are in need of the restroom after the start of class… I will presume this is a critical need, and a special circumstance. There are two hall passes on my desk. You may raise your hand, take one and quickly return. If you are about to be sick, just quickly leave. I or another person will check on you to be sure you are ‘OK’.
- 10. Procedures If you are having a problem, with the class or another student… All students should feel safe in this class. Bullying WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. Physical, Verbal, or Cyber! If you are struggling with the material, or me, please speak with me. We will work out a solution. Raising your hand or speaking up when you are having a problem is not always easy! But is it RIGHT!
- 11. Procedures If you are absent… You have one week to make up the work. If this is a planned absence, such as a college visit or a family vacation – please see me prior to your departure and I will provide you with the assignments. Quizzes or exams that are missed due to absence must be made up within one week after returning to school. You must arrange a day/time to meet with me during a student period or after school to do so.
- 12. Procedures Academic Honesty….. The work in question gets a ‘0’. A separate independent assignment worth 50% of the questionable assignment will be given. It is your chance to redeem a bad mistake and regain your integrity. Late or Missing Assignments You will get two homework passes during a semester. If you have consumed these, work turned in after the due date is reduced from full credit at 20% per day.
- 13. Procedures Conduct during class…. I expect students upright, in their chairs, participating in class. I expect students to raise their hands in answering questions, so that I and others may clearly hear them. I expect quiet during announcements or for a visitor, giving respect to what’s communicated.
- 14. Procedures - SAFETY The MOST IMPORTANT is LAST: Labs are a part of this class. We will have a class, quiz and separate paperwork for your parents to sign covering the safety procedures in greater detail. If you DO GET HURT in class… a cut, a burn, anything…. I NEED TO KNOW; NO HIDING! YOU NEED TO SEEK TREATMENT – even if it’s just a band-aid or ice IF YOU KNOW ANOTHER STUDENT HAS BEEN HURT IN CLASS, IT IS NOT ‘OK’ TO BE SILENT!
- 15. What You Can Expect of Me…. I Don’t Like Sitting, I Like Moving Around…. Some of you are like that too! - I lecture 20-30 mins. Then we’ll practice or work as a group. - I LIKE LABS! We will shoot for one every 7-10 days. - I like asking questions. And I like getting as many different answers as I can! - 30 mins of homework, four times a week. - I will give you a quiz once a week. - You will have an exam once per grade period. It will be announced 2 weeks in advance and come with a study guide. - One BIG dislike of mine are put- downs or ridicule of people or ideas! From experience a number of great ideas were originally dismissed as stupid!
- 16. Consequences Include, but are not limited to: Verbal warning Change of Seating Detention Student-Teacher Conference Teacher-Parent Conference
