Classroom Management Plan
Classroom Rules
PRAISE, ACCEPTANCE, RESPECT, AND RESPONSIBILITY will be the primary traits for creating the desired school behavior.
Good manners will always be expected.
Listening and following directions will be stressed.
Raising a hand to share or ask a question will be utilized.
Quiet working and completing all work will be expected.
Respecting others’ space and property will be stressed.
Assuming responsibility for actions and returning things to their proper places will be developed.
In keeping with the school-wide-K-4 Discipline Policy, we will remind the students of expected behavior. A verbal warning will be given and if necessary their behavior light will change from green to yellow or red. The time-out chair will be utilized if necessary.
Grades
In kindergarten, the children will not receive a report card until January. We are spending much time getting into the school routine and doing an inventory of skills. Much of our work is done as a whole group and the children are gaining readiness skills in all areas of the curriculum.
Class work/Homework
Finishing class work is a classroom rule and must be followed. Ample time is given to each student for completing the assigned work. Homework assignments will be given each evening. The homework should be completed and returned the following school day. The homework will be an extension or practice of a lesson we have worked on in the classroom. This will give you an opportunity to see what your child is working on, and helps the children practice skills as well as develop the responsibility of getting it to school the next day. These organizational skills will carry over for all their lives.
Closing Thoughts
This will be a great time of learning for all, and we hope you are aware of the vast amount of development that will occur this year. We are looking forward to the rest of the school year. As the class gets to know each other, they discover the individual strengths and weaknesses that create their own uniqueness. The Specialist teachers (Mr. Wagner, Ms. Moore, and Mr. Himes) are assisting the students in the self-discovery of their special interests and talents. As we learn songs, poems, shapes, colors, letters, numbers, words, organization skills and routines, the students have the important task of doing their very best and being responsible for their work and behavior.
Please take a little time to discuss these points with your child.
Always try and eventually you will be successful.
Talk differences, problems, or misunderstandings out.
Walking, not running, inside the building is for safety.
Listen to directions and follow them carefully.
Speak quietly at all times during learning activities.
Listening when others speak is respectful and necessary.
Waiting in line for drinks and restroom breaks develops patience and self-control.
If you take it off the shelf, please return it to the proper place.
A single file on the right side of the hallways and holding onto the stair railing insures safety.
On the playground, children must sit on the swings and slide. They must hold on with both hands and always practice safety on the equipment.
Never leave the classroom or school property without the teacher’s permission!

Thanks Mrs. Swann for creating an encouraging and safe atmosphere for our students. I am soaking it all in and making notes on things that will work well in my future classroom!
The treasure chest is a great motivator for students!
