After having sampled yesterday'g behavior, the teacher decided that class participation would be included in grades at 15%. A syllabus is in development. Students will start each week (on Friday, actually) with 8 points for behavior, a B-, and then be awarded extra points (a thumbs up) for good behavior and docked points (a thumbs down) for bad behavior.

Our noise level scale is as follows:

The hand signal for "please quiet down and listen" is an outstretched hand with fingers counting off the five seconds maximum that it should take to quiet down. If you notice the teacher raising a hand, please do the same so that everyone is alerted as quickly as possible.

Students completed a computer skills self-assessment form.

We collected requirements for our birthday party invitations which will be incorporated into the project description.
