What is CKH? CKH: Catch Kids Heart Social Contract Before and After Before: know each other by activities After: We all follow the S. C. Purpose: Our purpose is to make better adults--both future and present--to create a self-managing school. If our school is self-managing, adults can spend less time on discipline and classroom management, and more time on teaching and helping students grow.

Shake hands_first touch Handshakes are a professional skill, and a good handshake sends a powerful, positive signal to a potential employer (or, really, almost anyone). We use handshakes to invite relationships with other members of our school community and also to begin the conversations that will happen during class periods. Teachers also use the handshakes to check in with students as they enter the room, and, sometimes, prevent problems from coming into the classroom.

Good things 3 ~ 5 minutes only Call on different students, if their hands aren’t up Ask questions to show interest in responses Applaud after each response Teacher or students lead

Classroom activities Before: to know each other and ready for S.C. After: the content activities

Social contract_I Purpose: A self-managing group Instructions: Put five or six students in a group. Each member of the group is assigned one of the following roles facilitator, scribe, spokesperson, timekeeper, on-task person, and affirmer. Give each group the four questions (see next page) Have each group narrow their list to their top 5 responses. After each group answers all four questions, they reconvene a class, but remain with their group members. The teacher provides a flip chart and markers, and has a volunteer come to the front of the room to be a scribe for the class. Options for management of activity: do on poster board to post in room do on board, take pic, print use as a springboard for conversation about all being connected

Social Contract_II Activity 1. How do you want to be treated by me (teacher)? 2. How do you want to be treated by each other? 3. How do you think I (the teacher )want to be treated by you? 4. How do you want to treat each other when there is conflict?

Hand Signals Hand signals are non-verbal cues that allow members of a classroom community to communicate with each other without disrupting the classroom environment. Teachers can bring a class back together without shouting. Students can remind neighbors and teammates to come back to the Social Contract without embarrassing them publicly. The hand signals offer all members of the classroom community a productive, non-confrontational means of addressing inappropriate behaviors (including those behaviors that we might find extremely annoying.) Times up Fault On / off task

Violate the Social Contract When a student has reached the point where they would receive ISS or OSS, that student will report to your class and the consequence will be served the following day.  ISS: In School Suspension OSS: Out School Suspension
