CLASSROOM RULES  Show respect  Make good decisions  Solve the problem.  Practice Kindness What happens if you choose to not follow a rule:  Step one-Think step-  Step two- At recess, write a plan for changed behavior.  Step three- Plan review and call home by student to review behavior and plan.  Step four- Teacher. Principal, parent intervention of plan. Students very rarely will make it even to step three. Step four is generally an indicator of larger problem that requires adult assistance.
