Behavior Update: I wanted to make you aware that our class behavior is getting worse and worse in the lunchroom and at specials. Today an administrator described their behavior as a "train wreck." As a result, I had the whole class walk laps on the playground during recess for about 15 minutes. Many were unhappy about this, as would be expected. Several were upset that the class was being punished as a whole. I have no choice but to have the entire class suffer a consequence when the entire class is reprimanded as they were today. I have been signing choice cards, but I will have to start signing them much more often now. The new choice card for the new 9 week period will begin Tuesday 10/15, so all will have a clean slate that day. Each 9 week period Mrs. Morand and I will be rewarding students with 3 checks or fewer with a movie party. The 1st 9 week reward party is Tuesday 10/15.
Please reinforce to your students the importance of self control and appropriate behavior.
I certainly appreciate the wonderful behavior so many of my students exhibit on a daily basis. I know this doesn't apply to everyone, but we function as a class. We will either sink together or sail together! I'm counting on sailing!!!
