My second class was spent reviewing through the classroom expectations: missing and late work policies, progress reports, etc.
My final group worked on discussing the nature and importance of science, as well as for social studies. Tomorrow, we'll finish those discussions and move into a general discussion of government and the role it plays in our society as a prelude to the constitution unit.
In all cases, each class was given a copy of the class procedures to take home, review, have a parent or guardian sign, and it is meant to be returned tomorrow. Anyone who fails to bring it back as scheduled will be issued a detention for Friday. An addition copy can be found here, at the bottom of the page.
