**//Respect//** -You are expected to be kind to one another and respect each other and me. This is a class with substantial discussion; there is no talking when someone else is speaking. Please respect everyone’s right to speak and to be heard. -There is to be no talking while the teacher is talking. It disrupts the classroom flow and will slow your learning down!

- //The Taylor Zone//: I ask that all students stay out of my desk, and the area immediately around it.If you need any of the supplies my desk might contain, please ask and I will gladly provide you with what you might need. - //Your Own Zone//: Please be respectful of personal property and physical space in the classroom.We need to get along and while students are not afforded a lot of privacy in the classroom, I try to provide an environment where their personal items are safe.Please take all belongings with you after class is over. - //Your Assigned Seat//: Throughout the school year, you will have an assigned seat. This is to keep class running efficiently throughout the year and to help me learn all of your names (you should try learning over 100 of them in a week or two!). It is also meant to help //you// learn.That’s why you’re here after all.
