• Signal<br />

o<br />

In order for me to get your attention at the beginning of class or when we are doing<br />

partner work, group work or when you just might get unfocused, I'm going to use a<br />

signal. The signal in,my health class will be "May I have your attention!"<br />

• Discipline<br />

o If you are acting inappropriately I will give you a warning. I'm really easy to get<br />

along with so please don't take away the opportunity for one of your classmates to<br />

learn in class. If you do and the behavior persists I will be forced to ask you to go<br />

to the office.<br />

• Tardiness<br />

o Be on time to class. If you are tardy 3 times you will have to serve a lunch<br />

detention. Each tardy .after that is an automatic lunch detention.
