| IMPORTANT CLASS INFORMATION Pew’s Policies – Team 6A Social Studies My class is run in a very interactive manner. Students will complete numerous activities, simulations, in-class projects, and worksheets on a constant basis. Organization is essential for success in my class. Notebook: Each student is responsible for completing and maintaining his or her notebook from September through June. This notebook is the “textbook” for my class. All worksheets that are completed in class are labeled with a page number in the top right hand corner. It is the student's responsibility to attach these pages to the corresponding numbered page in his or her notebook. Tests and projects are completed via these completed pages. Please make sure that pages are attached every night. Students are given materials (staplers, tape, and glue) and time at the end of every class to attach the pages from that day. Notebooks are graded multiple times each quarter and count as 30% of each report card grade. Failure to maintain a neat, completed, and organized notebook can result in failure of my class! RECOMMENDED NOTEBOOK: ONE SUBJECT FIVE STAR SPIRAL NOTEBOOK. (NO MARBLE COMPOSITION BOOKS) If you are unable to provide the recommended notebook, please ensure that the notebook has 100 pages and a page size of 8.5 X 11 inches. Materials: Due to the fact that we complete multiple projects per quarter as well as activities, classroom supplies must be treated with respect. Donations are welcome and encouraged! Failure to treat the supplies with respect will result in students not being able to participate in simulations. Materials used are: markers, glue, staplers and staples, cardstock, scissors, tape, tape dispensers, rulers, string, manila and colored folders, etc. If you are able to donate any of the listed supplies, it would be MUCH appreciated! Simulations and Activities: I have a firm belief that in order for students to truly understand history they must experience it for themselves! My classes participate in numerous simulations where we investigate and act out historical events. Other activities and in-class projects are also conducted for students to get their hands on history. Please be advised that inappropriate behavior, lack of respect for classmates, or mistreatment of supplies will result in students being removed from these events and given an alternate assignment. ALL PROJECTS ARE IN-CLASS ASSIGNMENTS. Homework: The only homework my students have is current events due the last time we meet every week. If a student does not complete worksheets or does not attach them, then he or she must complete the task for homework that evening. click here for parent/printer version |
