- Coming to class prepared can be a big problem, especially when students have a locker. It is very important that students come to class prepared with all of their materials. Any time wasted in the hallway getting forgotten materials is a waste of curricular time.
- Every morning, a list of materials and items needed for the morning classes are posted in the hallway. When students are getting ready in the morning, they can use that list to gather their materials.
- At the beginning of every quarter, you will see 50 points for each curricular area I teach. Students are truly starting each quarter with an A+. Any time students forget their materials and have to go to their locker to get the forgotten materials, one point will be taken off that 50 point total.
- If students come prepared to class, they will have a free 50 points factored into their final grade. If they are constantly forgetting materials, it will count against their final grade. A two week grace period will be given at the beginning of the year since students are still adjusting to the routine.
