ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY:
When entering the class, please note:
There are NO LATES to class. You must be in your assigned seat when the bell rings. You will be written up for being late to class!!!
Check the board when entering the classroom. Read and follow instructions for that day’s assignment.
You are REQUIRED to bring your NOTEBOOK, FOLDER and WRITING UTENSIL every day to class. If you do not have these items, you will receive a ZERO for class participation. Colored pencils or coloring tools are strongly suggested.
TAKE NOTES IN CLASS! Tests in this course are largely based on notes received!!
Class participation is composed of DAILY grades, such as: class participation, completion of class work, copying notes on the board, coloring completion and appropriate behavior.
Grading is as follows: 50% Class participation, Class work and Home work
50% Quizzes, Projects and Major Assessments
Assignments, worksheets, coloring packets, labs…ALL MUST BE IN ON TIME! Late 1 day = -10 after that it will be a 50.
TAKE NOTES IN CLASS! Tests in this course are largely based on notes received!!
Tests will be given approximately once a week. There will be a REVIEW DAY before the test. An absence the day before the test does not excuse you from the test. An unexcused absence the day of the test will result in a ZERO for the test.
Labs and activities will be performed based on YOUR behavior.
NO CELL PHONES or ear buds during lecture or any assessments! You will be written up for refusal to comply.
You will remain seated when the bell rings. No lining up at the door.
Always remember:
Reach out to your teachers if you are overwhelmed.
Collaborate with peers using respectful language and behaviors
RESPECT the subject matter, your classmates, as well as the teacher.
Be patient with yourselves and your teachers- we are all learning together!
