Mrs. Anthony’s class

Class Rules Come to class ready to learn and prepared to work. Raise hand to get permission to speak. Raise hand to get permission to leave seat. Do not interfere with others learning Respect yourself and others as well as the property of others.

Behavior Monitoring Our classroom will use a combination of the clip chart as well as Class Dojo to monitor behavior. The clip chart is located in the classroom. Each student has a clothespin or clip with his or her name on it. Everyone will start on green at the beginning of each day. Clips can be moved up and down, or off the chart throughout the day based on behavior. Class Dojo is a positive online tool that easily encourages students to do the right thing. Students can see and hear when points are given as well as taken away.

Behavior Monitoring The Class dojo and the clip chart will be a great tool that allows students to be rewarded for positive behavior, while discouraging negative behavior. With class dojo, the teacher can send parents class photos, announcements, and show you how students are behaving in class.

Behavioral Consequences. Green is where we begin our day and we are prepared to learn. You may either move up or down. Orange is the teacher's choice. This means the teacher decides what the consequence will be.  1) behavior Form filled out  2) seat changed, recess taken, station/center time taken, extra work assigned Clip Off means that you had an extraordinary day!!! Clip off means that your clip has jumped off the charts onto your teacher. Your teacher will wear your clip ALL day to show others that you had a spectacular day!!! Red means that you refused to follow the class social contract.  1) phone call home, buddy teacher  2) lunch detention or after school detention  3) classes closed, referral to office
