YOU ARE HERE: HOME --> CLASSROOMS --> MS. NEAL --> OUR CLASSROOM PROCEDURES
The first days- The first couple of weeks we will be covering rules and procedures. Don't be surprised if your child is not speaking to you at home about academics. It is crucial to establish procedures and routines first in order to succeed in the content areas.
Conferences- Your child is very important to me. However, if you have information you would like to speak to me about, feel free to call me at school before 8:00 a.m. and after 3:00 p.m. We can schedule an appointment or converse on the phone. Also, I will contact you about any concerns I feel we need to address. Thanks for your understanding.
IPODS/Cell Phones/Toys/Dolls- I know your children may have special items at home that are difficult to leave behind, but NO IPODS/cell phones/toys/dolls of any sort are allowed at school.
Classroom/School Rules- There are five classroom rules that
I believe will help the school year run as smoothly as possible
and ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn in a
safe and supportive environment. These are school wide rules that
will be followed consistently throughout all the grades. The five
rules are as follows:
WE ARE RESPECTFUL
WE USE POLITE AND KIND WORDS.
WE DON'T BULLY, TEASE, OR USE PUT DOWNS.
WE KEEP HANDS, FEET, AND OBJECTS TO OURSELVES.
WE ARE RESPONSIBLE
WE ARRIVE ON TIME WITH OUR MATERIALS AND POSITIVE ATTITUDES.
WE STAND AND WALK IN STRAIGHT QUIET LINES WITH OUR HANDS BY OUR
SIDES.
Classroom/School Consequences- If a student does not follow the classroom/school
wide rules the consequences are as follows:
First time: Warning
Second time: Five-minute time out
Third time: Ten-minute time out
Fourth time: Parent phone call; up to one hour of
in-school suspension in a buddy
classroom
Fifth time: Referral to the principal
Homework- Homework will be sent home everyday in your child's green homework folder. Use the homework folder to check for daily homework, return homework, and write notes to school. In addition, your child will take home a "Homework Agenda" at the beginning of each week in which they will record their assignments, due dates, behavior and note something that they learned that day at school. This homework agenda has space at the bottom where parents can write any questions, comments and concerns they may have. I will be checking the student's agendas daily and will get back to your concerns as quickly as possible. At the bottom of the agenda is a space for the student's parent/guardian to sign each night. Please try and read with your child everyday before bed! READ TO SUCCEED!
*And last, praise your child for their success and hard work. Making your child feel good about themselves will give them incentive to do their best!
