Planners must be signed every night

. On about Wednesday, graded work and the contract for the previous week is sent home for your review.  Students may not attend Friday special fun activities if they owe any work, either school work from the contract or homework.  Your signature in the planner tells me that you know the homework, looked at any notes, reviewed completed work, made sure your child read and that you saw behavior for the day.

Behavior is recorded on a "ladder"  each day. The higher a child is on the ladder at the end of the day, the more points he or she earns. When a rule is broken, the student’s clothespin will be moved down.  Examples of good behavior, clothespin will be moved up. Completing all homework or making a 100% on an appropriate level, independent AR book result automatic moves up.  The clothespin is in motion all day so your child can always try again and improve behavior, any time of the day.  Any student on negative one at lunch has half time silent lunch. Negative two is silent lunch for the entire time.

 

Every morning is a fresh start for each child.  The points at the end of the day will be listed on the planner. Morning points for HW, reading and such can only be received until 8:15.  Anyone leaving early will not get points for the day.

 

Every few weeks students will be able to "shop" monthly with the points they earned.
