Mrs. Thompson (room 210)
Classroom Expectations

Supply List
Each student will need to bring the following supplies to class each day:
- binder (2-3 inch)
- paper

How will grades be earned in this class?
Student grades will be made up of weekly quizzes and unit tests. Each week will end with a concept quiz. Each concept counts as an individual grade and the entire quiz is averaged together to make a test grade. More information about these quizzes and the grading system can be found using the link below
Cell Phone Issues
I encourage cell phone use in class if it assists us in our learning. We WILL all download and add DESMOS to our phones early in the year to use in and out of class. Students MUST remain in the Specified/Allowed app ONLY. Any student caught deviating from allowed apps will have the phones taken up.
CHARGING CELL PHONES IS ONLY ALLOWED AT THE CHARGING STATION PROVIDED.
Any other charging will result in the phone being taken up.
Textbook Information
Individual textbooks will not be issued unless requested through Mr. Kidd's office. The entire textbook and its components are available online.
We will also use google classroom
