               DISCIPLINE POLICY

Welcome to the world of second grade at Maple School.

In order to assure that your child and all the students in my classroom have the positive learning environment they DESERVE, I have implemented the following discipline plan.   I believe all students can behave in such a manner that will assure positive results.  We cannot allow a student to disrupt the learning of another child, and/or my teaching.

MY CLASSROOM RULES: 
BE S.M.A.R.T
Say please and thank you
Make friends and use kind words
Always raise your hand when you wish to speak
Respect your teacher and others
Try your best and always work hard

I have a clip chart posted in class to monitor behavior. This allows students to be rewarded for positive behavior, while discouraging negative behavior. At the beginning of the day everyone will start with a clean slate on green (ready to learn), and throughout the day students clips can be moved up and down based on behavior. 
If a child chooses to break a rule there will be consequences. 
1.  Verbal warning
2.  Lose of privilege
3.  Parent conference or phone call home

As a reward system for positive behavior, each student has their own jar and can earn fuzzies by behaving appropriately at school. This means a student is on task, participating, and following school and classroom rules. When a student earns 20 fuzzies they get to choose a prize from the treasure chest. 

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.
Thanks so much for your help and support!
