Classroom Behavior Expectations

Class Dojo

We will be using Class Dojo to monitor and report classroom behavior. This is a great tool to keep communication open between the teachers and parents. There is a message center where you can message the teachers and there is a Class Story where pictures and activities will be posted.

Please be sure to join our Class Dojo using the link sent to your email. If you did not receive an email, please reach out to us so we can get you set up!

Raising my hand.

Being kind to others.

Being kind to myself.


Being Responsible

Doing my work.

Doing my class job.

Following directions.

Putting things away.


Being Cooperative

Helping my friends.

Sharing with my friends.

Using my hands for sign language.

Solving problems with language.


Photos of the expected behavior are posted in the classroom.

It is important for the students to understand the expectations.
