Parent Information & Student Expectations

My first grade classroom is a place where your child will feel welcome, safe, and loved every day. As a parent I know that every child in my class is somebody else’s whole world. Your child will be treated with as much love and respect as I give my own children at home. We are a classroom family!

We will have a class set of rules that we will work towards every day. These rules ensure a safe and positive learning environment in our classroom.

*Behavior System*

." Students have the chance to move their clip up or down on our chart throughout the day based on our classroom and school expectations for behavior. In your child's Diplomat Planner you will be able to see the color where he/she was on our clip chart each day. Teacher notes and/or phone calls will be made as needed.

Red Outstanding!	Students who reach the Red level will be rewarded for their positive choices.
Orange Great Job!	Students who continue to make positive choices move up to the orange level. They are one step closer to having outstanding classroom behavior!
Yellow Good Day	Students who make positive choices will receive recognition as they move up the chart.
Green Ready to Learn!	Everyone starts the day “Ready to Learn”! Students can “clip up” or “clip down” throughout the day depending on their behavior choices.
Blue Think About It!	Students who receive a warning will move to blue. This serves as a reminder to students to think about the choices they make.
Purple Teacher’s Choice	Students, who continue to make poor choices, will move to purple. This will result in a consequence that is appropriate for the choice that was made. Different choices require different consequences. Children are different so consequences will vary depending on the child and the choices made. (Time out, loss of privilege, loss of playtime, etc…)
Pink Parent Contact	Students who move to pink will require parental contact by me. Parents will be contacted via telephone, email or note depending on the severity of the behavioral choice.
