Discipline Plan

Discipline Plan:
Our classroom rules are structured around The 3-Bs
Be Safe
Be Respectful
Be Responsible
This will become a big part of our classroom culture. Our classroom will follow disciplinary steps.
The four steps consist of:
1. Friendly Reminder
2. Refocus Desk (Plan of Action sent home for signature)
3. Refocus Desk in Another Classroom and Phone Call Home
4. Office Referral
Please let me know if you have any questions. Students have a fresh start everyday. If students have two or more plan of actions in one week they lose the privilege of Fun Friday (described below).
Discipline management is most effective when a child has learned procedures through practice and knows what is expected of her or him. The ultimate goal of our students is self-monitoring behavior and appropriate choice making. To build community and respect, class meetings will be held regularly.
Consequences may include: losing recess time, written apology, loss of field trips, loss of class rewards, separation from group, community service, and study hall. There are individual as well as group consequences.
Classroom Expectations
In our classroom we expect:
Appropriate behavior- Making good, healthy decisions, being kind to ourselves and others, and having self-control
Accountability- for turning in homework and assignments and being accountable for individual actions
Respect and Acceptance- for ourselves, others, our differences, and the school and classroom environment
Contributions- Share our passions, experiences, cultures, and individuality
To have fun while learning!- The classroom is a safe place to learn, take risks, make new friends, and be recognized
Fun Friday Students who turn in ALL their daily/weekly homework (including signed parent newsletters, permission slips, etc.), have two or less Plan of Actions, and have not received any school referral forms (consequence of unsafe behavior on playground or dangerous action- in the past called Red tickets) will enjoy the earned reward of 30 minutes of self-selection or class game on Friday afternoons. This is an activity that is shared by all 5th grade classes, it is held from 3:10-3:40, and is something for each student to strive for throughout the week. Students who do not earn it will go to a study hall fifth grade class.
