September

September Welcome Back to School

Classroom Expectations

All students will continue to be taught classroom expectations through modeling and practicing each week throughout the month of September and as often as teachers feel it is needed.  Clearly and positively define and reinforce the classroom expectations.

School-Wide Expectations

Staff will continue to review and model school-wide expectations throughout September.  Each class can expect to see their teacher and support staff model what kind of behavior is expected in each setting.  If we continue to teach and re-teach expectations, we will see positive results.

Lincoln Pride Cards

Lincoln Pride Cards will be used in all grade levels this year at Lincoln Elementary.  Pride cards should be used to positively reinforce school-wide expectations.  When you hand one to a student, say it loud and proud so that all know why it was given.  ALL STAFF are able to give students Lincoln Pride cards.  Each week students, who earned pride cards, will have the opportunity to have their names drawn and read on the morning announcements at the end of the week.  They may also earn special privileges in their own classroom.

Hopes and Dreams

At the beginning of the school year it is important to develop hopes and dreams for students to think about what they want to accomplish for the year. This will be revisited in the month of January to see what progress has been made on their hopes and dreams.
