We also use the mobile lab often

MP3 players or CD players

FIRE AND TORNADO DRILLS

Rules to remember: We have to practice like there is a real fire or

tornado We cannot talk Never cross the hall

We stay to the left and go through the commons to the library hall , into the gym, and down the stairs to the storm shelter. We sit in between the two lockers rooms.

If you are out in the hall, do not drop your stuff If you are not in our classroom, follow your teacher

or go to the nearest exit and walk around the outside to meet us (fire)

ONE LAST THING…

Cleaning up after yourself is essential!!! We all make messes, but clean it up!

Put trash in the trash cans Put books neatly on the shelves Keep your table, area, and locker clean The room needs to be cleaned everyday before anyone

may go to recess We will have recycling bins for paper/plastic….please

use them!

This also helps get you organized!!
