2. R ULE 1 Respect the teacher and the other students in the classroom. Rational: Without respect in the classroom things could get hectic.

3. R ULE 2 Talk only at appropriate times. Rational: If children just talk freely during class you loose time trying to keep them quite, and other children might not be able to focus on their work.

4. R ULE 3 Try your best! Rational: If children in class don’t try their best then they might not put everything they’ve got into their school work.

5. H OW TO TEACH THE RULES I would split the class into three groups. Each group would get a rule. The group would act out their rule and other students have to guess what rule they have.

6. C LASSROOM LAYOUT
