RULES are meant to eliminate disruption in the science class and provide the most time-on-task for each student.  Students are expected to follow the General Rules of Appropriate Student Behavior posted in each classroom and to act in a safe and responsible manner in the laboratory.

• Follow directions the first time they are given.

• Be in your assigned seat and ready to work when the bell rings. Remain in your seat until I dismiss you.

• Raise your hand and wait to be recognized before speaking in class.  Use language that is respectful of peers, teacher and you.  Do not interrupt when another person is speaking.

• Keep your hands, feet and objects to yourself.

• Students are not allowed in the prep room without special permission.

• Students are not to disturb materials or equipment set up for other classes. Do not touch lab materials until given directions to do so.

• Inappropriate behavior specifically named in the Student Handbook will be handled according to the School District 205 Discipline Guidelines.

POSITIVE REWARDS will result when students comply with the class rules.  The end result will be higher grades as you learn to work better together

, use your work time more productively, and learn more with greater understanding.
