Classroom+Procedures


 * Beginning of class **:
 * 1) Students will enter calmly. They are welcome to talk as long as it doesn’t get too loud.
 * 2) They will place their personal belongings in their cubby or at their desk, depending on what grade.
 * 3) After placing their things, they will have a morning worksheet or will be able to choose a center (math, reading, etc.), depending on the day
 * 4) Student’s attention will be gotten with “Focus Fox”- a hand signal that means be quiet and pay attention.
 * 5) When student is tardy they are to sign in with the office and get a slip.
 * Managing the classroom **:
 * 1) They can leave their seats to turn in finished work, when they ask permission, or when directed. Not during class instruction time.
 * 2) Students will need a hall pass in order to leave the room.
 * 3) They will raise their hand in order to receive my help, or if I am at my desk they can come up quietly to ask a question.
 * 4) Individuals will raise their hand in order to talk, unless we are having a discussion (as long as they do not interrupt others and are respectful) or when they are working in groups.
 * 5) Their materials will be placed in their desk or on their group tables, depending on how the room is set up.
 * 6) There will be a basket of sharpened pencils located on a table in the room. If the student needs a sharpened pencil they will take their dull one and leave it in the “leave one” basket and take one from the “take one” basket.
 * 7) Students will move into cooperating groups calmly and orderly (no running, screaming, etc.)
