Classroom Expectations:

1. Please come into my room prepared to listen, work and have fun!
2. We will be using tools in this class. Since your safety is incredibly important to me, it is essential that you follow all safety rules.
3. Please ask permission to leave the classroom. My classroom is on the first floor, so you will need to use the first floor bathrooms across from the front office.
4. If you pay attention in class and participate, you will not have homework.
5. This class is project based, so instead of having tests, we will have short presentations at the end of each project.  Yay! No tests!
6. Most days, we will not need to use computers. Please be prepared to take a break from blue light and do not use any electronics unless told to do so.
7. Be respectful to all students, teachers and yourself. Remember that your words have the capacity to hurt others.
