Music Rules &
Procedures
Please read over the
questions on the
paper from the music
stand.
Answer any questions
you can before we
start.
Supplies Needed for
Class
1. Pen or Pencil
2. Folder
3. Notebook Paper
More Detail Regarding Class Materials
1. If you forget a pen/pencil or paper, look
on the bookshelf to see if there is any to
borrow. Asking friends or the teacher for
supplies will result in
a mark of “unprepared” for the day.
2. You are expected to keep ALL music
materials IN YOUR FOLDER. Folders
are checked for content twice each nine
weeks and are 25% of the grade.
What are the Rules?
Rules
1. Enter the room quietly.
2. NO food, candy or
beverages.
3. Listen and follow
directions.
4. Be respectful to your
teacher and classmates.
Let’s Talk in a Bit More Detail About Rule 2
Rule #2 includes gum. Due to the expensive
equipment that is in this classroom,
gum is not allowed in the room at ANY TIME!
Actually, you are not allowed to chew ANYTHING in the
drama classroom. Do not chew paper, erasers, toothpicks
or even the inside of your own mouth. If you are caught
chewing anything at all the consequence will be to write
the gum essay.
If another teacher gives you gum, candy or food as a
reward, do not expect to be able to eat it when you come
to drama class. SAVE IT FOR LATER!
Consequences
1. Verbal warning/change seat
2. Behavior Essay/Teacher
conference
3. Parent Phone Call/Guidance
4. After school detention

1. Look on the music stand for an
assignment.
2. Read TV screen (or board) for
additional directions.

Where should I put my personal
belongings?
Please place your personal
belongings underneath your chair.
Do not use an empty chair next to
you for your things or as a desk.

Unless you are told otherwise,
assignments are always turned
in to the black tray on the
bookshelf in the back corner.
What do I do if I finish
my work early?

a. If you do not have your own book, you
may read books from the shelf. Please
return any borrowed books before you
leave.

the music. If it is too loud you will be
asked to put it away.
iPods, MP3 Players, etc.
You may listen to music as long as you
remember the following:
1. You may only listen if you are
doing INDIVIDUAL work. If working with
a partner or in a group your attention
must be on your fellow student(s).

teacher is talking. If the teacher has
something to say, please remove your
headset and listen.

sharpen my pencil, etc?
You may leave your seat to throw
something away or sharpen your
pencil anytime that the teacher is
NOT talking to the class.
A pencil sharpener is located in the
white bin, on the bookshelf, in the
back corner of the room. There are
also scissors, rulers, tape and an
“extra pen/pencil mug” that you may
borrow from.

Stolen or misplaced items will NOT be
replaced.
Please consider donating some tissues
and/or hand sanitizer. These items
are not provided by the teacher.

temperature in this classroom.

too hot in the winter.
Please do not ask me any questions
about the temperature of this room—
there is nothing I can do!!!!!!!
Can you leave to get water?
What about passes to leave
the room?
You have 3 passes to leave the
room for the nine weeks. You may
use them at any time for any reason
(office, nurse, locker, etc.)

CLASS RULES/PROCEDURES
TARDIES
If you come to a closed door you are tardy. It
doesn’t matter why—if you are late, you are late.
If you don’t have a note from a teacher you must
take a piece of paper from the red tardy
envelope by the door.
1st Tardy: Copy paragraph
2nd Tardy: Copy paragraph, call home
3rd Tardy: Copy paragraph, after school
detention
How do I make up assignments if I am absent?
When you come back to class check the make up
assignments bin near the door.
You will probably need to get notes from a classmate, if
you do not get the notes you can find them at
www.starkey.wikispaces.com
If you have been in ISS or OSS or have been out of
school for several days, see Ms. Starkey after you pick up
your assignments for any additional directions.
CLASS RULES/PROCEDURES
Why is the word MUSIC on the board?
Letters are taken down for
class discipline.
If the class loses all five letters
everyone must write an
essay to remind them of the
rules and procedures.
Let’s Have A Great
Semester!
