**Thank you so much for taking my class.  I hope you have a great day. Please leave me a note telling me how things went. Let me know which classes earned feathers and which one didn’t. 

Management: 

Coming In

I greet each class at the door, invite them in, and tell them to quietly come in and sit down at the computer or on the dots and wait for instructions. I don’t invite them in until they are quiet in the hall.  

Leaving

1. When it is time to leave, about 3 minutes before, I have them log out. Then have them stand up and push their chair quietly.  Unplug their headphones and check that they have their name tag and anything else they brought with them.  If they are noisy, have them practice again. 

2.  Collect any papers and keep them separated by class.

3.  Dismiss them by rows, row 1, 2, 3, and have them leave the classroom and wait at the end of the hall for their teacher.  Don’t have kids line up and wait in the hall by the library windows.  

4.  Teachers should pick them up, but if the teacher isn’t there tell them to wait at the end of the hall. 

5. Pick a person of the day. Someone who has been working hard, who has been respectful and kind, and listens to directions the first time.  They get to carry the feather back to class and greet each person with a high five, elbow, or knuckles as they leave the room. 

Attention Signal

Lower Grade: Eyes on me by the count of 3... 1, 1. Look at me.  2 fold your arms and 3 Ready to listen

Upper Grade: Eyes on me by the count of 3, or start counting down from 3.

Rewards/Consequences

1.  Earn a feather if they have, in your opinion, earned a 4 (Followed all rules and expectations).  If they get 3 warnings they do not get a feather. 

2. Having them earn 5 minutes at the end of class to choose an activity off my website is motivating to them.

3. IF NOT following expectations

   1. Give a verbal warning to stop the poor behavior

   2. Give a yellow card and miss 1 minute of computer time 

   3. Give an orange card- Miss 15 minutes and write the rules (at the back desk near the counter)
