Wongs 7 Things Students Want to Know

Mr. Andre Fields | 6th Grade Math

5. How will I be graded?

1: Am I in the right room?

A sign will be hanging
near the door in the
hallway facing both
ends of the hallway
with my name on it. I
will also stand in the
hallway to greet them
as they enter!
2. Where am I supposed to sit?
A seating chart will be
projected on the screen from
the overhead projector with
their names printed showing
where they will sit.

3. What are the rules in this

classroom
There are 5
classroom rules. They
will be posted in three
places within the
classroom, and we
will discuss and
demonstrate the
classroom rules and
their importance.

I will discuss with the

students on the first day
the concept of how I will
grade them, but not the
specifics until I determine
how they best learn and
the best type of activities
to present.

6. Who is this teacher person?

4. What will I be doing this year?

I will give the students a

brief overview of my
background and when I
decided I wanted to be a
teacher. I will also have a
collage on one of the
bulletin boards with
random facts/pictures
that describe me and who
I am.

7. Will the teacher treat me as a

human being?

MATH! Focus towards Algebra and

Geometry. The first day of class will
be going over most of the classroom
procedures, getting to know each
other, and a glimpse of the type of
work we will be doing. I will also give
them a list of the topics we will be
covering and give brief overviews.

I will treat my
students with
respect and let them
know that it is safe
to learn in my class.
I will also let them
know and see that I
am stern but fair
always!
