Welcome to Mr. Considine's Science Scholars Class of 2014!

Here are some requirements and tips for this school year:
1) Bring a blue/black pen, a pencil, a ruler, AND a colored marking pen (red, yellow, orange, etc) to class every day.
2) You need two marble notebooks: one for Science notes and one for Science Lab.
3) Your HW will be completed in your Science notebook; the only HW that is to be done on loose leaf paper are Science Articles, which will be turned in each Friday, unless notified about a change.
4) You must bring in a Science folder which will be kept in class as your Portfolio.

Mr. C's Classroom Dos and Don'ts
1) DO come to class on time; if you are late and without a pass, you will make the time up on YOUR time.
2) DO bring bottled water, but leave all other liquids at home.
3) DO keep your area clean and dispose of all trash into the garbage bin, but DON'T do this while Mr. C is teaching.
4) DO enjoy your breakfast and lunch, but DON'T bring food into Mr.C's class.  Food attracts mice and insects which spread disease.
5) DO keep your phones and all electronic devices on mute (no vibrate) and in your bags or you will pick it up after school on YOUR time.  If this becomes a recurring problem, then your parents will have to pick it up themselves.
6) DO raise your hand if you want to ask a question or contribute to the discussion, for it is important to keep ORDER in the classroom.
