Classroom Procedures

1.      Entering the room: When entering the room we will be silent and polite. We will walk to our desk, make sure our bags are hanging on the back of our chairs and silently sit down. We will wait silently and politely for our teacher’s instruction.

2.      Getting supplies/Playing in desk: Our desks will be organized inside and out. We will not fiddle with things inside our desk and will remove supplies from our desk when the teacher asks. During lessons and assignments we will only have out what our teacher has told us to have on our desk.

3.      Restrooms: The restroom should be used before school, during lunch, and recess. If you need to use the restroom during class time you must raise your hand and ask the teacher. When you go to the restroom you must sign out and take a pass.

4.      Class participation: When participating in classroom discussions you must raise your hand and wait to be called on. You must also make sure that what you are saying is appropriate and respectful for the classroom. No shouting.

5.      Group work: When working in groups the discussion must be about the assignment. Everyone in the group must participate in the assignment and each person must be respectful to one another.

6.      Lining up: When lining up we do so quietly and quickly. Anytime we are in a line we are right behind one another and we are not speaking to anyone. If we cannot manage this we will practice around the school building causing more homework for the night.

7.      Turning in assignments: Assignments will be turned in on time. With the students full name and date on every assignment. All homework assignments must be turned into the designated area at the beginning of each day before class begins.
