When you step into my classroom, you step into a world of learning and growth. But before we can start on that journey, we need to establish some ground rules. Here are the five rules that we follow in my class:
Rule 1: Respect Yourself and Others
We are all unique and wonderful individuals, and it’s important to remember to treat each other with respect and kindness. This means not making fun of others, not using hurtful words, and always being mindful of how our actions affect those around us.
Rule 2: Follow Directions
I know that sometimes it might be tempting to do things our own way, but following directions is important for everyone’s safety and for making sure that we can all learn effectively. So when I give directions, let’s all make sure to listen carefully and follow them to the best of our abilities.
Rule 3: Keep Hands and Feet to Yourself
Touching others without permission is not okay, and it’s important to remember to keep our hands and feet to ourselves. This means not hitting, pushing, or otherwise touching others in a way that might hurt them. Instead, we can use our words to communicate how we’re feeling.
Rule 4: Use Inside Voices
We all get excited and want to share our thoughts and ideas, but it’s important to remember to use inside voices when we’re in the classroom. That means not shouting or otherwise making loud noises that can distract others or disrupt the learning environment.
Rule 5: Work Hard and Have Fun
Most importantly, let’s all remember to work hard and have fun! Learning can be challenging at times, but it’s also incredibly rewarding. So let’s put our best foot forward, work hard, and enjoy the journey!
These are the rules that govern our classroom, and I hope that we can all work together to create a safe, supportive, and productive learning environment. Let’s get started on our journey of growth and discovery!
