Your number one job as a student is to add value to the classroom. To do that, focus on the following:
"Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts."

Classroom Tasks for Students:
There are four tasks that you will be asked to take on from time to time. Those tasks include:
Daily Scribe: Whenever we are exploring our lessons, two students will collaborate as "official" note-takers for the day. Their notes will be open to a class edit and distributed to the class before that block's final bell.
Official Researcher: Additionally, one or two students will be responsible for finding information on the internet that supports the day's lesson. The supporting resources will be shared with rest of the class.
Content Creator: About once each semester, you and one or two partners will create tutorials to support our lessons. Your tutorial will become part of an online library of support for the entire grade.
Teacher: Remember, you are not just students. You are also teachers. From time to time, I will ask you to demonstrate your mastery of a subject by teaching it to the rest of your class.
