I will need your active assistance with the goal to create a safe learning environment. It's vital for the success for all of our children in this classroom if all of us are on the same team together – supporting each other and supporting our children in safe and respectful ways that allow our children to grow and are allowed to learn from their mistakes –by building a school community that treats others the way we wish to be treated. The students are more motivated, excited, and engaged in an inclusive and supportive climate – where it's safe to make mistakes and learn from each other.
WE ARE A LOVING AND KIND CLASSROOM:
Class Constitution/Lifelong Guidelines/Teaming Up Together
ALL people (regardless of age) learn and work best when they are in a safe, caring environment. Our Classroom Constitution simply states the LIFELONG GUIDELINES:
1) Be trustworthy. (Treat others the way that we wish to be treated – because harming others in words and actions make us distrustful.)
2) Be truthful. (Be our self, use "I statements," and admit when we make mistakes.)
3) Use active listening. (Take turns listening to adults and classmates. Raise our hands when we want to speak and be heard. We let others finish their thoughts. We reflect on what we have heard. We share our thoughts when it's our turn.)
4) Do our personal best. (Practice the lifeskills, actively participate, take pride in our work - and allow others as well as our self to shine in class!)
5) Use "Push-ups" – not "Put-downs." (Encourage our self and others to do our personal best. Speak kindly to our self, our teachers, our staff, our family members, and our classmates –compassion and understanding build us up personally and support and strengthen our community.)
