We have 5 core rules:

1. Respect yourself, others and their property, and your teachers. 2. Come to class prepared and stay prepared. 3. Follow directions the first time they are given. 4. Always use appropriate noise levels . 5. Raise your hand to speak or to leave your area.

In our classroom, we are working to build a sense of community.  We are all depending on one another to make this school year beneficial and successful.  We have many classroom behavior management systems in place to keep us all in check!  Our class system is called “Spin It!”  Each day the students will vote on a scale of 1 to 5 on a variety of conditions.  1 being the lowest possible score.  If the class average is at least a 4, the students will earn one letter to begin creating the phrase “Spin It!”  When we achieve the entire phrase, students receive a class reward.  These rewards can be anything from extra recess to a special snack. 

Individuals are also held accountable in our classroom through a strike system.  If a student earns more than five strikes between each “Spin It!” then they will not participate in the next one.  Other consequences for strikes include silent lunch, a phone call to parents, and/or a write up on the behavior management plan, which eventually can lead to an office visit with consequences of detention or suspension.
