In our classroom, we keep track of our behavior with a stop light called "Go for the Green."  At the beginning of each day, every child starts off in green.  Our goal is to stay in green for the whole day.  If the child stays in green for the whole day he/she had an excellent day at school!  If a student decides to make an inappropriate behavior in class, he/she will move their name to the next color.  At the end of the day the students will bring me their B.E.E. folder and I will color the box from their behavior chart and circle the classroom rule that the student chose not to follow in class.  Please make sure to look at your child's behavior chart on a daily bases so that you are aware on how your child is doing at school.

Green:  Excellent Day!    

Yellow:  5 minutes of thinking time & yellow note will be sent home. 

Red:  Loss of recess time and red note will be sent home.

Several Disruptions:  The child will be sent immediately to office.

 

As you know, good behavior and learning go hand in hand.  During the first few days of school, our class creates a list of simple class rules to make our days at school safe and successful.  These rules have been established to ensure your child experiences a positive and safe learning environment.  We 'sing' the classroom rules every day and your child has a copy of the classroom rules in their folder.

 

1.  Listening Bodies - I will listen and follow directions.

 

2.  Raised Hands - I will raise my hand to share ideas.

 

3.  Quiet Mouths - I will use a soft voice.

 

4. Walking Feet - I will walk in school to be safe. 

5.  Helpful Hands - I will use my hands for helping and not hurting. 

6.  Caring Hearts - I will use kind words and share.

 

When students stay in green for the day they receive a sticker for their behavior chart.  When a student completes their chart they will receive a special prize from our classroom treasure box.
