At the start of each day, every student is expected to follow Oakview’s School Rules. When I push into a classroom, students are expected to follow the rules set by their classroom teacher.

When students are pulled to work with me in my room, we follow these expectations:

• Follow directions quickly

• Raise your hand to speak

• Keep your hands and feet to yourself

• Be safe, honest, and kind

• Listen when the teacher is talking

To encourage positive behavior, students have the opportunity to earn a sticker each day for going above and beyond classroom expectations. At the end of the week, students who have earned all their stickers get to choose a prize from the prize box!

In addition to this reward system, students receive frequent praise for following expectations and completing tasks. Positive reinforcement is a key part of how we build a supportive and encouraging learning environment in my classroom.
