"Fires in the Bathroom": Chapter 3

1. "Let students know your plan for the class" and "...put your policies on all these in writing, either for handing out to students or posting on the classroom walls" (page 38).

2. These are two big things I look for in a syllabus on the first day. I like to know what the teacher is going to do with teach us, how their going to go about it, and what their expectations are behavior and academic wise. This is something that every teacher should have clearly stated somewhere where the students have easy access to. The rules should also be able to be contested by the students, like if they want to add more (ask them if they want to add anything or make anything clearer).
