Mrs. Reid ART DEPARTMENT

Classroom Rules 2016-2017

 Attend class on time. Be in the art room or check-in with the teacher by the time the bell rings.

 Treat yourself and all others with respect and common courtesy.

 Be aware of safety at all times. All book bags need to be under the desk and out of the aisles, clear from foot traffic.

 Handle all art room property and tools with care and caution.

 The use of appropriate language is always expected. Absolutely no swearing or inappropriate language is allowed.

 This classroom is always free from verbal and physical conflict.

 Pay attention and LISTEN QUIETLY when you are receiving instructions. Good listening skills are essential. All electronic devices should not be in use during instructional time and art demonstrations.

 When I am not instructing to the entire class, you may be allowed to listen to music quietly through your own earbuds while you are working. If I can hear your music, it’s too loud for your hearing and I will tell you to turn it down. Please do not sing out loud while you are listening to music. If you love to sing, JOIN CHOIR!! 

 Don’t let your electronic device distract you from class….Keep your focus!!!

 Your personal property is your responsibility to monitor. Never leave anything of value unattended such as on your desk when you get up to put a supply away or wash your hands. Keep all electronic devices and their accessories, to yourselves. It’s a good thing to be discreet.

 There is no audio/visual recording allowed in my class of other students or of any teachers. You do not have permission!

 Give respect and you will earn respect!

 All artwork must be school appropriate which means no images or symbols that use or relate to alcohol, drugs, gangs and/or weapons.

Act like an adult and you will be treated like an adult...... GUARANTEED!!
