Classroom rules/consequences are very simple and fair. We discuss them as a class the first days of school. Children understand that they help us all get along and keep us all safe.
Rules: * Listen carefully * Follow directions * Keep your hands to yourself * Walk inside * Use inside voices * Respect others with words and actions * Put things back where they belong
Consequences: A "Keep smiling" chart is used showing 3 smiles for each child. Smiles are covered as needed, when a rule is broken. 1st- warning 2nd- time out in classroom (5 min. or less) 3rd- additional time out and note home
