Because our class should be a learning community, we will practice five agreements.  Each agreement will be explained, modeled, and discussed as needed.   When students keep the agreements, they are rewarded.  Daily, weekly, and monthly rewards will be given.  In case students do not keep the agreements, they will have consequences based on the number of sticks in his/her behavior pocket.

Our Agreements
We will always do our best.
We will use kind words, not put others down.
We will give everyone mutual respect.
We will actively listen.
We will walk quietly from place to place.

Behavior folders will be sent home on every Friday.  They are to be signed by a parent or guardian and returned to school on the following Monday.
