In our classroom we have five rules from Whole Brain Teaching.
Rule 1: Follow directions quickly.
Rule 2; Raise your hand for permission to speak.
Rule 3: Raise your hand for permission to leave your seat.
Rule 4: Make smart choices.
Rule 5: Keep our dear learning community happy.
We use ClassDojo to keep track of how these rules are being followed in the classroom, at specials, at lunch, at recess, at field trips, etc. Students will earn points when rules are followed. Students will lose points when rules are broken. Students will redeem these points for a variety of prizes and rewards based on how many points they earn by the end of the week. Points will typically be redeemed on Fridays. Rewards could be anything from stickers to extra recess!
Clicking the ClassDojo image below should invite you to our ClassDojo classroom! ClassDojo also has a messaging feature that I do most of my communication through, so please make sure to sign up! I will also be using the "Stories" feature to upload pictures of our classroom and any important announcements.
ClassDojo can be used on any device with internet. For example, tablets, desktops, laptops, and phones. You can download ClassDojo as an app on android or apple. If you have any questions about connecing, please feel free to contact me. I will also be sending home a paper with instructions during "Meet the Teacher" night.
