We have had some troubles following and remembering the rules I have in my class. I will put a poster up in class as a reminder, and this note here should be helpful too. Remember, if you break my rules there are consequences! The 5 P's 1. Be Polite (no cursing, talking back, or being rude) 2. Be Punctual (Be on time for class! Break time is for going to the bathroom, getting a drink, and going to your locker, not for socializing) 3. Be Present (you need to be here, physically and mentally in order to be successful in my class. You MUST work!) 4. Be Patient (DO NOT talk while I'm talking) 5. Be Prepared (Bring your things. You need to have a pencil, paper, and a calculator for my class.)   I know that you all can follow these rules. The minute you walk into my classroom each day you are agreeing to them.

Hi everyone,     I am very excited to be a part of Bonar Law, although I know you all will miss Ms. Sutherland until she comes back next fall. I know things are a little different now that I'm in class, but in time I'm sure you will adjust.  I promised you all in class that I would only give homework twice a week (as Ms. Sutherland did). You will regularly be getting in-class assignments from me that I will give you PLENTY of time to complete during class time. I will give you a full review period before each Unit Test.  I can't wait to watch you all grow and learn more about the exciting world of Math!
