Stickers received, will be used for raffle prizes every two weeks • Line points: class will receive up to 8 points each day if class follows the line rules in school. This includes the way they line up, the way they walk in line and their behavior in line. If class accumulates an agreed upon number of points at the end of each quarter, they will have extra PE time once a quarter. It sounds easy, but keep in mind that the entire class is accountable for their behavior in class. One error from one student, will cause the class to not get points.
