PBSIS Classroom Management Plan *will be updated*

Dear parent(s)/guardian(s),

Here is a note regarding our classroom management program. As a teacher, my role

 is to teach your child. I LOVE that role. I want our classroom to be a place

of learning, and I strive to make sure all students in my classroom have an opportunity

to learn. In order to create a classroom environment conducive to learning, it is

imperative that our classroom management program is in place and supported by

you at home.

Our classroom rules are as follows:

1. Listen and follow directions

2. Use hand signals and stay on task

3. Keep your hands and feet to yourself

4. Respect your classmates, school, and teacher

Every time a classroom rule is broken, a consequence is given.

Our classroom consequences are as follows:

1. Redirect (serves as a verbal reminder)

2. Side Line (temporary movement to a different area in classroom)

3. Think Time (time at small group table to fill out a reflection note)

4. Letter Home (letter home to parent that must be signed and returned)

The first thing I want you to know is that a redirect is not a bad thing. In my class, a

redirect acts as the first reminder/warning. These will be more common at the beginning

of the school-year. For example, if your child is talking when I’m teaching, I will give them

a redirect instead of giving them a reminder to stop. I find that by doing this, behavior

starts to change immediately, because they know I will be consistent the first time and

every time. For a side line, the student will be moved to a different spot in the room for a

few minutes, while continuing to participate, and then will return to their original spot.

In order to build and maintain trust with all students, I will be as consistent as possible.

I also want you to know that behavior is learned and can be changed. Children’s brains

are so moldable. I expect all students to adhere to our classroom rules and rise to meet

our classroom expectations. It is imperative that these rules are followed so I can

preserve a positive classroom environment and give all students access to learning.

If you have any questions or would like more details, I’m happy to send you the student

presentation I will be using to teach students or answer any questions you may have.

I am so excited to teach your child this year! It’s going to be wonderful!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kelley :)
