Classroom Rules:
1. When the teacher is talking, we are listening.
2. We keep our hands to ourselves.
3. We use walking feet.
4. We take care of our things.
5. We use kind words.
6. We try our best.
Discipline means to impact knowledge and skills. It is a way of teaching children how to become aware of their actions. It helps the child fit into the classroom happily and effectively. We use positive reinforcement throughout the day to teach our class to make smart choices and learn how to follow school and classroom rules.
Students are taught and expected to follow classroom rules throughout the day. If a rule is broken, time is taken to further teach and reinforce better choices. Consequences are given if a child continues to make poor choices after being spoken to. Some consequences may include taking a break or time away from an activity, redirecting, or losing a privilege of a toy or activity time for that day.
Each week students will receive an “Ask Me About” page that will remain in their FISH binder. In efforts to focus on daily learning activities, this will give you a conversation starter when asking about your child’s day at school. A comment or note will be added if your child had a hard time following the rules that given day. (Example of "Ask me About" page is on the top right of the screen).
Students who make good choices throughout the week will have the opportunity to pick an item from our classroom treasure chest.
