Management+Plan

Classroom Management As you can imagine, it is necessary to have a classroom management system in place to control behavior. We have a set of rules in place in our classroom the very first day. These are our rules:

1. Obey Teachers 2. Always walk. 3. Quiet mouths in line. 4. Be a good listener. 5. Control your hands. 6. Be kind.

When a rule is broken the child who has broken the rule must move their frog. The first time a frog is moved for the day it is moved to the warning line. 'The child will stay on green. Everybody gets a second chance. The second time a frog is moved, the child will receive a yellow dot on his/her behavior calendar for the day. A third move is an orange dot. A fourth move is a red dot. Orange or red dots will result in the loss of some privileges like special activities. Whenever possible, I will use natural consequences. For example, playing during working time will result in finishing that work during another activity. I try to be fair and listen to all sides of a story.
