Consequences

Positive reinforcement is strongly enforced in this classroom.

I explain to the students that not meeting a classroom expectation is a choice they make, not an accident. I also explain that I realize they may not meet the expectations from time to time, but I want to fix these problems so it does not happen again. They will have a consequence if they do not meet an expectation.

If I choose to break a rule:

First Time

-Verbal Warning

Second Time

-Take 1 to 5 minutes in recess to practice that expectation

-Discussion with teacher

Third Time

-Take 5 to 7 minutes in recess to practice that expectation

-Discussion with teacher

Fourth Time

-Discussion with teacher

-Discussion with parent

Fifth Time

-Further consequence
