Dear Parents and Guardians,
Many of you know about the stoplight discipline policy in my room as we went over it during "Back to School" night. Those of you who do not, it is a system that goes from green to red depending on the students ability to follow the rules at school. I have decided to implement a behavior chart that is going to go home in the homework folders everyday. This way you are able to keep track of how your child is doing. I prefer to use lots of positive reinforcement and I feel the best way to do this is to reward students for good behavior. Once students accumulate ten green days they will earn a privilege such as: coupons for lunch with the teacher, 15 minutes of computer time, first in line for the day, trip to the prize bucket or various other things. The hope in doing this is that it will increase the communication pertaining to your child's day and also that the children will understand the importance of good behavior and a positive learning environment.
Thanks for sharing your children with me and allowing me the opportunity to teach them.
Mrs. Freeman
