Class Rules

This week Amazing Eight decided it was time to update our class rules. With a talking buddy the children decided what they thought were important rules we all need to follow. 

We then added our ideas together to create our new rules. The children coloured in a hand print to show they agree to follow the rules that were decided on by them. 

When children choose not to follow the rules, these are the steps I will take: 

- first warning.

- second warning and removed to the thinking spot for a set time duration. 

- third warning and removed from the classroom to another teacher for a set time frame.

- phone call home if the behaviour continues. 

There will be times when I will choose the deliberate strategy of ignoring. This will be used when a child is displaying attention seeking behaviour. This could be in the form of calling out, making noises and moving around the classroom. 

The children in Amazing Eight have been working out and are developing strong ignoring muscles which they are capable of using, too.
