Procedures

HandoutsLook for handouts on the counter as you walk into class, pick up any handouts

Lab groupsUse the number on your desk to find your lab table & lab groupPassing out papersPass papers straight back (not to neighbor)Class RulesWe must come to a consensus on what these rules mean

RespectSafeTryAsk students to find the class rules, either in the classroom or on the syllabus36BrainstormPass back the class rules worksheet & independently brainstorm 5+ ideas for each rule.

Dont throw your pencilDont cussFollow all directionsHave students brainstorm independently for 3-5 minutes. Have students collaborate for an additional 1-2 minutes to get at least 10 ideas for each rule.37If you tell someone what NOT to do, there can be a lot of unanswered questionsExample: Dont throw your pencilCan I roll it across the table to someone?Can I toss it gently?Can I throw an eraser since its not a pencil?

Telling someone what to DO is much clearerDont throw your pencil

Pass materials by handing them to the other person

For HW: write your top 3 ideas for each rule as a POSITIVE do behavior

Only pass materials when you are close enough to hand them to the other person40Next time.Finish the consensus at the bottom of the worksheet. Due Monday 8-11-14

Model this part of the activity to students (taking turns, starring the best, discussing the final consensus)41Closure- out loud with neighborWhat does this picture make you think of? How does it make you feel?
