10^th Grade Health Class Rules

Mr. Goslee

• You are expected to be in class everyday on time. If you miss class for any reason, you are responsible for the information you missed by the next class. Get it from a classmate or come see me before school.
• You must have a notebook, pen or pencil, and a folder specifically for health with you everyday along with the text.
• You must take notes on all information given in class including videos. This is a big part of the class, since a majority of the test questions will be coming from the notes.
• Keep all handouts as you will be required to put your name at the top of each handout. Test questions will also be pulled from them.
• All work must be handed in on time. Deductions will be made for late work with a 30% deduction for each day, then no credit. If absent you have one week to hand it in or no credit.
• All tests must be completed during the time allowed in class. No second chances.
• If you miss class on the day of a test, you must take the test immediately upon return and it must be arranged for sometime in the morning or study hall.
• Inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated. You are to be respectful to classmates and to your instructor. Majority of these subjects require totally mature behavior. If you have something to say, make sure that it is relevant to the subject and raise your hand. Don’t just visit. Violation of this would consist of detentions and possibly further enforcement.
• Food or drink is not allowed except for water or Gatorade.
• You will receive participation points daily. This will include points for materials in class, note taking, class discussions, direction following, behavior, and proper use of his/her time.
• Grading: Everyone should get a good grade in this class if they are in class, take good notes, and complete all assignments on time.

A: 90%-100% Tests = 55%

B: 80%-89% Homework = 35%

C: 70%-79% Participation = 10%

D: 60%-69%
