CLASSROOM DISCIPLINE SYSTEM

In order to provide our students with the excellent educational climate they deserve, I have developed the following classroom discipline plan that will be in effect at all times. You may want to discuss this with your child. I will go over it in the classroom, but I want the children to know WE are working together on this behavior plan.

Below is a list of our CLASS RULES THAT WILL BE FOLLOWED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. We will go over these rules on the first day of school to make sure the whole class understands them.

CLASS RULES
1. Follow teacher’s directions the first time they are given
2. Keep hands and feet to self
3. Walk quietly in the halls and classroom
4. Raise hand to speak or leave desk
5. Treat others with respect and kindness


Your child will have a behavior calendar that will need to be initialed every night and returned the next day.

We will use the “STOPLIGHT” method as our discipline system. Every morning the children will begin their day with a GREEN light. When an inappropriate behavior occurs, the light will be turned YELLOW. The first light change will serve as a warning to the student that his/her behavior should improve. A second light change in the same day will result in a RED light. If the student then has to move to a BLUE card ath this time a note will be made on your child’s behavior chart informing the parent that a BLUE light was reached. This will be used as a means
of communication between home and school.

At the end of each week, the students that have stayed on a GREEN light the whole week will be able to pick out of the treasure chest.

Please discuss this with your child so he/she can recognize their mistake and be able to explain it to you.

Your cooperation and support for this method of discipline will be greatly appreciated. Working together with this, we can make this a great year.
