Class+expectations

Level 4 English Learner Summer School
This course will focus on improving your reading, writing, listening, speaking, and critical thinking skills. Each day, you will be expected to keep track of your assignments in a class notebook. You will label and copy the learning objectives, record vocabulary using Cornell notes, and complete class assignments in your notebook. We will focus on reading expository texts this summer, and you will learn to write academic responses to the articles.

Behavior Expectations
Since this is a summer school class, you will be expected to be on task at all times. Any problems with behavior will be referred to Mr. Sterner. It is a privilege to be here and it is not mandatory. I will not hesitate to drop any students who do not follow the expectations.

Please: Do not eat or chew gum in class as it causes a distraction and attracts unwanted "visitors". Bottled water is OK. Raise your hand to speak. Do not interrupt the instructor or your peers when they are talking. Come to attention when the instructor raises his/her hand. Arrive on time with all supplies everyday. Class starts at 7:30! You may not miss more than 2 days of summer school, or you will be dropped. A 15 minute tardy is considered absent for 1 hour. Keep visits to the bathroom to a minimum. Try to go before class and during break. You will have one snack break each day. The class may receive brief stretch breaks at the teacher's discretion. Turn in all work on time. Actively participate in all class activities and discussions. Give your best effort and aim for success!
