Terrific Tuesday!

Hello all...
Another wonderful Tuesday has come to a close and I have remembered to add to our blog. Yay!
It has come to our attention these past few days that a few of our class members need to be reminded of the daily routine we have established. Please review the following and talk to Ms. A and I if you have any questions.

  1. When you arrive in the morning, you should all be going to your lockers to remove jackets, etc. and retrieve ALL of the supplies you need for your first two periods. You will not be allowed back to your lockers until the 7 minute break. Stops for drinks or washroom breaks should take place at this time.
  2. Upon entry to the classroom, you are to sit in your desk and read or study quietly until the morning announcements.
  3. When you return to your lockers at the break, you must gather all of the items needed for period 3 and 4. At this time, it is advised that you use the washroom or get a drink as you will not be allowed to go in period 3.
  4. The next time you will be allowed to go to your lockers will be at lunchtime when you will quickly drop your stuff off and pick up your lunches and anything else you may need to get through the lunch hour - this may include jackets, homework, club supplies or musical instruments).
  5. After the lunch period is over and your have retrieved your lunch kit from the designated area, you will go to your locker and get all items you need for your last two classes. Once again, this is the time to stop for a drink or use the washroom as leaving the class is not permitted in period 5.
  6. As a rule, social time occurs outside the classroom. Once you enter, you are expected to quickly and quietly prepare yourselves for class.
  7. Following our routine will ensure that we have adequate time for our lessons which will then help establish some free time for our class to have a little extra-curricular fun together.
