The five management tools I created are ▪ The Letter of Introduction ▪ The Contact/Personal Information ▪ The Lunch Selection ▪ The Hall Pass ▪ The Behavior Report These tools will be used in the following manner. The “ Letter of Introduction ” will be sent to the parents of each child approximately 30 days before the start of the school year. It will be used to introduce myself, provide an address in which the parents can contact me with any concerns/questions, and to get contact information on the parents and any personal information on the child that may help to provide a better learning environment. The information gathered from this introduction letter will be compiled on each student to create the “ Contact/Personal Information ” sheet to be used as a reference to better understand each student ’ s needs and strengths over the school year. The next management tool, “ Hot / Cold Lunch ”, will be placed on the white board every morning and will be used in the following manner: When the music starts, each student (one at a time) will go to the board and sign up for the type of meal they will obtain for that day. This will be used to take roll and provide feedback to the cafeteria in order to plan the number of hot meals needed for that day. The “ Hall Pass ” is used to monitor the amount of time a student misses class and determine whether the student needs extra help in any area because of the missed time. The “ Behavior Report ” is used for unruly students who continue to disrupt the class. Parents will only become involved if the need arises.
