We have four basic rules, which are straightforward and easy to follow. I expect the children to do their best to follow the rules. The rules are: 1. I will keep my hands, feet, and objects to myself. 2. I will follow directions and complete all assignments. 3. I will show respect for myself and others. 4. My voice and movement around the room will be appropriate to the activity. • When your child does follow the rules- He/she may receive a sticker, extra recess time, extra center time, or a note to the parent. • When your child does not follow the rules- First, he/she will receive a warning. Next, he/she will conference with the teacher. Then, he/she will receive reflection time in the classroom. Finally, he/she will take a note home or parents will be called. Visual Classroom Display I use a color system to help the students see their behavior. There are 5 colors in the child’s pocket chart. Green: All is well- smooth sailing. Keep on traveling the way you are. Yellow: Warning- You need to be careful and watch your behavior. Slow down and think about what you are doing. Red: Stop- behavior needs to change. Orange: Reflection time- You need to stop and think about what you are doing and change the behavior. Blue: Behaviors have gone too far! Parent contact will be made by a note or phone call home. In your child’s Monday folder, there will be a behavior sheet that you will review and sign weekly. |
