Daily CLASSROOM ROUTINE
Daily activities include bell-work, notes and discussion, lab experiment or activity, and a closing discussion. There will be days where we do not do a lab and we do practice problems in class. There will be some days where there are no notes, and it's all an activity. Also, students have the day before a test/quiz to review and study in class together.

absencesAfter an absence, students will be expected to check the website to see what they missed. They can view, download, and print any notes, worksheets, or other handouts. Students have as many days as they were absent to make up the work. Students are responsible for getting/requesting make-up work and scheduling before or after school to make-up tests/quizzes.
