• Move to a spot where you can spread out all your papers and get organized. You should not be sitting close to any other student.
• Your name and ID number should be neatly TAPED on the front cover, top right corner.
• If you keep this portfolio for the WHOLE year, you will receive a nice prize at the end of the year.
• Your portfolio must be in chronological order (in order based on date, oldest papers should be on top).
• Your behavior score sheet should be LAST. Your final grade sheet should be FIRST.
• Open StudentConnect and use the dates to help your organize your papers.
• Today is a good day to organize your binder. If you have OLD papers that were never graded and added to StudentConnect, save them to shoot in the trash.
