Sarah M. G. Chambers (Mrs. Chambers) — 7 and 8th Math, Algebra, Geometry garcias@truman.k12.mn.us | 507-776-2111 x3969  Expectations and Timelines for the Classroom 1. Respect: Respect means you will come prepared. You will have what you need: pencil and paper, textbook, and homework done. No goofing off or distracting others. 2. Timely: You will do your assignments and turn them in on time. This means that the work is done at the beginning of the next day's class period unless otherwise stated. Missing work will only be collected for two weeks. Missing work will be marked as an MI and will lower your grade. This may impact eligibility. If it is not made up, it will be a zero at two weeks. Once it is a zero, it can not be made up. 3. Students know that I understand we all have bad days. They have witnessed mine, and I have witnessed theirs. Because of this, at the end of the trimester, I will set the computer to not count your lowest grade. I don't do this earlier because your grade changes up and down too often then. This is my "balance" for anything that happens during the trimester, but it will not offset poor work habits and disorganization. Do your work. Turn your work in. 4. I am ALWAYS available to help you. The kids know this. So, come to me before and after school or during study hall. Now that I have remarried, I will be keeping my Saturdays and Sundays for my family. If there is an emergency or if you have stubbornly not done your work, I will still contact your parent or guardian and ask for part of your weekend to get caught up. Stay on task! ELearning: I will have an assignment on the Classroom for the students to follow. They must check in and do the assignment before 3pm to be counted as attending. Assignments are due as posted. If it says today, then it is to be done on the eLearning day and turned in via the Classroom. If it is due the next day, then it must be done before coming to class. If you need help email me, call, or we can have a Google Meet. Secondary Math Rocks: See what we are up to in the Classrooms. Absent or Quarantined If you are absent and returning the next day, please check with me and the Google Classroom for anything missed. This assignment will need to be made up within two days per school policy. Extra worksheets that have been assigned are in the color-coded drawer above where you tun in your work. These are always available there. If you lose a sheet or need to start over, you don't need two wait for me. Just go get what you need; how, If you are quarantined, I will get a notification of this. I will send you an email, but everything should be in the classroom. I will substitute digital whenever possible as you may not be able to print a worksheet; however, both textbook pages and worksheets can be typed on a google documen and attached to turn n or a picture taken, attached and turned in in the Classroom.
