CLASSROOM POLICY AND PROCEDURE




OBJECTIVES: This course is designed to enable the students to
successfully pass the Global History Regent's exam. The Global History and
Geography core curriculums are designed to focus on the five social studies
standards and common themes that recur across time and place, and seven
historical eras. This curriculum provides students with opportunity to
explore what is happening in various regions and civilizations at a given
time. In addition, it enables them to investigate issues and themes from
multiple perspectives and make global connections and linkages that lead to
in-depth understanding.
As students explore the five social studies standards, they should have
the opportunity to explore the content and intellectual skills of these
disciplines.

Students will not be permitted to return to their lockers for material they
forgot to bring to class. 3. Be on time. 4. Generally…don’t be a knucklehead.
