HW:
Carefully read the Lowrey Code of Conduct page 10.
If you want full points, you should print and annotate the page (even better, annotate the page in your real Code of Conduct packet).
On loose leaf, neatly copy the questions then answer.
- What is the rule for gum?
- Why do you think Lowrey has this rule? Give at least 3 reasons and EXPLAIN.
- Some people think gum chewing SHOULD be allowed in school. Give and EXPLAIN at least one reason why. You may use your own brain or do some research or BOTH.

DON’T READ THIS!
IF YOU ARE CAUGHT…
Admit defeat. If your teacher has caught you, own up to your gum chewing. Let them know you’ll never do it in their class again. There’s no point in enraging them any further by swallowing it or lying about it (which may get you into even worse trouble). Admit defeat, practice, and try again in another class.
- When asked if you are chewing gum, reply no and state that you were chewing on your tongue. If they don’t believe you, open your mouth while hiding the gum and stick out your tongue. Keep in mind that your gum may fall out, or fall down your throat while doing this. Do only if you are absolutely sure that the teacher is not certain you’re breaking the rules.
- If you get caught, bite a little bit off and spit some of your gum in the bin. When walking back to your seat, you’ll still have a bit of the gum. Start chewing discreetly when your teacher’s back is turned.
