Late Hall & Minute Passes

As a reminder, Late Hall is scheduled to begin tomorrow.  If you are coming to my class from Ross, or going to Ross from my class, please be sure to bring your schedule & your agenda book to the Discipline Office for a 1-minute pass.  That means you will have 5 minutes to get to class instead of 4.  No more than that.  If you are late, you will be required to get a pass from Late Hall (which is usually room 1412) to enter class.  You lose credit for whatever work was done or collected in the time you miss class.  There are no make-ups for these zeros.

You are required to show me your pass in your agenda book.  I will write t down on my seating chart.  If you are coming from well into Ross, like the Gym, we can discuss the possibility of an extra minute for you to arrive.  However this can only be done after class with proof of your schedule.

If you already know this is the case for you, you are welcome to email me a copy of your schedule to get the ball rolling.  As always, all emails must have your fist & last name & your class period in the subject field or it will be moved to spam without opening.

Mrs. Ramo                                         Global History & Geography 10                                     2019-2020

Global History & Gegraphy offers students an examination of Global history from 1750 through modern times. Students must pass both this course and the Regents Exam to meet current NYS Graduation requirements. The minimum passing score for each is 65. 

OBJECTIVES:

At the conclusion of this course students should be able to successfully complete the course and Regents Exam. The minimum passing score for each is 65. 

REQUIRED MATERIALS:

Student are required to bring a binder, plenty of paper, standard blue or black pens (2 or more), & a highlighter to class daily. There is no corresponding textbook for this course.

EXPECTATIONS:

v  Students will be on time, in their seats & ready to begin by the time the bell rings daily

v  Students are to be prepared daily with all required supplies, work, & class handouts or will lose credit

v  Cutting & lateness not class will not be tolerated, school policies will be strictly enforced

v  Cheating, such as but not limited to plagiarism, will result in a loss of credit for that assignment & administrative intervention (see your Student Handbook for the definitions of plagiarism & cheating as needed)

v  Disruptions to the learning process (including, but not limited to, inappropriate behavior toward me or classmates) will not be tolerated

v  Students will have internet access other than a mobile device to access their homework assignments, updates, notifications, exam review, online quizzes & exams, & my online grade book – computer access is available on any computer lab or library during free periods or after school for students without this access at home

It is expected that students will follow all district building, & class rules at all times. Failure to do so will lead to consequences ranging from parent contact to administrative action.

GRADING POLICY:

Averages for each marking period can be viewed at any time in my online gradebook. Students will receive a password by late September. Parents are encouraged to email me at dramo@bufsd.org to request their own password for their student’s grades. Grades will be determined as followed:

Tests: 35%                 Quizzes: 25%                        Homework: 20%                   Class Work: 20%

Al homework is posted online well in advance of due dates. All information regarding due dates & make ups can be found in the post for each assignment. Any work due not turned in by the start of class is considered late. A list of required websites was provided in class today, please go over it with your student.

Global History is not a difficult course but it does require your best efforts. If you do your best, complete your assignments, come to class, & seek extra help when needed, you should easily pass both the course & Regents Exam!

This signed sheet is due back by the date posted online. A copy has be posted there for your convenience.  I look forward to a fun & successful year with you & your student!

DUE: Friday, 9/6

Read what follows before starting the HW due 9/6.  That info is beneath this list of instructions & tips.

Here is how this works:

• I will post the due date in the title of the post
• I will put any instructions needed in the post
• I will add the link to find the actual work in the post, long the make up info should you be absent & qualify for a make up, if offered.  
• Any dates or info in the original post, where you are linked, does not apply to the 2019-2020 school year.  
• "Copy & Paste" usually doesn't work on the links
• Using your phone never works well.  You must use the "desktop version" of the blog, & past students have had issues accessing the work.  None of his will be accepted as an excuse for not having our work since there is computer access available at school.  (This first assignment you can likely do from your phone, but it is highly discouraged.)
• Homework is usually posted well in advance.  You are welcome to print out any notes, etc due to copy at home if you don't have access.  You MUST use Internet Explorer to do this. Chrome does not allow you to print the picture.

DUE 9/6:

HAND COPY all notes into your binder.  You will have a quiz USING THESE NOTES at the start of class on the due date.  If you are late, you cannot make it up.  If you are illegally absent or cut, you cannot make it up.  If you are legally absent, you have until 9/10 to come before school to show me your notes.  Follow the make-up procedure given out in class.  If you fail to make up the work by the deadline, you will earn a 0.

Be sure to copy them just like I have them.  It will be much easier for you to finish the quiz in the allotted time if you do.
