Classroom Expectations
Welcome to my classroom expectation philosophy! in this class both student and teacher will have the opportunity to make decisions fairly and realistic. I will encourage independence and responsibility. Students will practice communication skills and teamwork. If you are familiar with the philosopher Barbara Coloroso, then you will be aware that I will let my students make the right decisions and let them learn from their mistakes to be successful. Being able to give my students a voice, is to help them feel belong and make them feel that the environment is also theirs, as Linda Albert mentioned in her philosophy. It is very important for students to feel welcome and feel safe to say anything they believe or think without any judgement from others, so I as the teacher will make sure that we are all treated with respect as it connects and its required by the Illinois social/emotional standards.
Parents you are also welcome to stop by and have a glimpse of how our daily class goes, as far as any future activities schedule, I will inform you in a timely matter. Parents are also able to communicate with me through this site for any other questions. Here are my class rules that all students must follow for the entire school year..
Class rules
1. Arrive on time
Following this rule it will make the student more responsible to practice manage their time efficiently.
2. Raise you hand
Following this rule will help each student to learn to respect others turn and be patient. Unless it is an open discussion then students will be aware to have the authority to blurr out answers or comments.
3. Participate
Joining class dicussions help students practice communication skills, help stay on task, and understanding.
4. Do your assignments
Completing assignments can help the student reflect on the material and help practice the concept more. assignments will be part of the students academic progress (grades).
5. Come prepared
It is a must that students come prepare to class in order for their time and learning to be less difficult. Studnets should always bring the needed materials for this class. (agenda,text book,laptop,calculator, etc)
6. Listen to directions
Following instruction can help the student with listening skils in orderto complete and work together when in groups.
Students will be reminded of the classroom rules and expectations on the first day of class and periodically. Depending on the behaivior or classroom rules neglegiance then the rules will be reminded more often. Students will get a paper copy syllabus of classroom expectations and will return to me signed by parent and student.
