Classroom Rules

I treat myself, others and property with respect.

I follow classroom and school procedures.

 You will receive a weekly behavior report  on Friday in a "Friday Folder."   This communication will encourage your child to do his/her best and also feel successful.  The students are rewarded for positive choices in behavior on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. 

The discipline plan used in our room is a form of Assertive Discipline using a "stoplight" system.  Each day begins with the child starting on a green light.  Each child has his/her own stoplight on a chart that helps to remind the child of his/her chosen behavior as follows:

•  Green Light- Acceptable behavior; Super, keep it up!                              

• Yellow light- Warning!  Unacceptable behavior.  No consequence but needs to change the behavior.

• Double Yellow light- Child is sent to "think it over" chair for a short    period.     

• Red light- An alert to a serious behavior problem.  The child is sent to "Think it over" chair and recess time is used to reflect on the behavior issue.  Parents will be notified.
