Our Class Community
Supporting a positive classroom community is very important to us. In addition to our school-wide Codington Can CARE principles, our class is formatted around a Star Wars theme that includes rules and rewards. Students can earn individual tickets and class credits for behaviors that are cooperative, prosocial, helpful, and engaged; These items are exchanged for individual and class rewards, privileges, or activities.
Our grade also promotes a positive community through the integration of the principles of Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences and the Harmony character education program. These principles are directly taught to children and reinforced daily.
