Class Rules

The following points are the class rules we will stick by. To avoid any confusion all students are required to sign them and keep them through the rest of the year. I will ask to see this piece of paper at the end of each bimester; if you have it you will gain half a point in a varios assignment.

1. Absolutely NO bullying. If I see anybody being abusive they’ll leave the class immediately. Being abusive means, calling people names they don’t like, insulting others or mocking them in any way. If I consider the insult to be too grave it’s a direct amonestación.

2. English must be spoken at all times unless I give permit ion to speak in Spanish or any other language.

3. You can sit wherever you want but if I decide to change you, it will be permanent and wherever I like. So behave and you can have the same seat all year.

4. Cellphone policy is as follows: You will leave your phones on my desk, if you do not want to it’s fine but if you take it out it’s a sacada, the next time an amonestación and after that it will be an amonestacion all the time. I will let you use your mobile phones on special situations. This applies also to iPod’s and music players or any other electronic device that is not related to the class.

5. -No eating in class. You may drink whatever you want that is allowed by the school.

6. -Turn your assignments/projects on time. If you miss the due date for a homework assignment or project you can turn it in up to two days later although each day will cost you a final point over the total grade.

7. -Every Friday will be quiz day. It won’t be hard unless of course you’re not doing your reading. These quizzes will count in parciales.

8. -No cheating during quizzes and exams. You might get lucky and get away with it but if I catch you it’s an automatic zero.

9. -Bring all the stuff you need to class. You are not allowed to go out for a book or notebook you forgot. If you use the pass to do this you will be sent out of class.

10. -Come to class on time. After I close the door, if you’re not inside then you’re late. Please don’t wait outside and come inside when the bell is ringing.

These rules are unchangeable unless a special situation comes up. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. REMEMBER: keep this page safe somewhere!
