1XXXXXX Day
Our first day goals are:
Students will:
- familiarize themselves with the class syllabus, expectations, and grading,
- Get to know their teacher and classmates via some fun/corny/super exciting exercises,
- Connect student accounts to Google Classroom,
- Complete our first lesson
Warm Up: (write the questions on a sheet of paper in your binder or notebook, then answer them - you will get a grade for this...)
1. As a student in this class, which materials should you bring to class every day?
2. Will Mr. Alexander allow phone usage in class? (If you think he will, say why and when he'd allow usage. If you think he won't, say why)
3. Looking at the agenda for today, what do each of the four colors indicate?

First Day Activities
A) Here's the things you'll be graded on from today:
- warm-up (collected next week with other warm-ups)
- survey (online - complete in class)
- "Who I Am" handout (turn in hard-copy today)
- syllabus signature turn-in (turn in via Google Classroom)
B) Go to the main page for your class, either Medical Professions, Nursing Skills, or Physics. Look in the links on the left or right hand side for the syllabus, classwork, & grading pages. Familiarize yourself with this layout. This website and Google Classroom will be especially useful to you if you have an absence and need to make up assignments for that week.
C) Go to the syllabus page for your class. This is a summary of what to expect in your class. It tells you what you will be learning, how you will be graded, and what materials you are responsible for bringing. You'll need to get a hard-copy of the syllabus from my desk, then have your parent/guardian sign the signature page, and turn that in via Google Classroom by our next class meeting.
C) Look on the left hand side of the page and click on the link marked GRADING. This page explains how you will be graded,
D) Go back to the main page for your class. Find the link to the Textbook for your class and click on it. This page gives you instructions on how to find the online version of your textbook. This means you can access your textbook at home or at school as long as you have a device that can connect to the internet. *Med Term students, you will only use an online book for the first couple weeks or so, after which you'll be assigned a physical textbook. *Med Prof students, your reading is all online - no book for you...
E) Take the First Day Survey (link is ---> HERE).
