Behavior+Plan

Behavior Plan for Mrs. King's Class

One rule to follow in Mrs. King's Class :  Do not interfer with the learning of others! That covers all other areas. Thank you for your support. Clip Chart There is a behavior chart in the class and each child has a clip on it. They begin each day at "ready to learn" and from there they can make choices to move move up (great choices) or down (negative choices) each day. This is a great visual reminder to the students to reflect on their learning and the choices they make.

*I have also added a behavior calendar for those students who need more direct and close daily behavior reinforcement. Also.... Preventing others from learning and feeling safe at school is not tolerated. Any child who does not feel that they can come each day and do their best work and be successful will need to notify me immediately!

** *Please remind your child how important it is that they come to school to learn. Noises and disruptions that happen in class take away from not only their learning but the learning and teaching of others. ** *Thank you for your help with being a positive example and role model  to your child.

In our classroom, the focus is on positive individual, cooperative group, and whole group behavior. Many activities teach students how to get along with one another. __**The school wide Character Counts**__ program will be promoted in the classroom. Positive behavior is rewarded in many ways: //Character Gram- Given for positive individual behavior based on the Six Pillars of Character:// 1.Trustworthiness 2. Respect 3. Responsibility 4. Fairness 5. Caring 6. Citizenship

I tell my students that they are not always going to like everyone they work with, sit by, or talk with; However they do have to respect them. I relate it to the real world. We do not always like who we are working with but to get the job done we need to be respectful.

I think by them having to cooperate in a small group with others helps prepare them for their furture in school and in a job.
