  1. WELCOME TO 4TH GRADE!Please do the following:1. If you have any notes or paperwork for Ms. Crow, please put them in the basket on my red desk.2. Please go pay lunch money if you have it. 3. If you have a lunchbox, you may put it in the blue basket labeled LUNCHES next to the door.4. We will organize folders and supplies later today. Please do your best to keep them inside your desk until we organize them.5. You may use the restroom quickly and quietly if you need to.6. Please sharpen 2-3 pencils. You may use the sharpener in the front of the room or back by the sink.7. Please begin the activity sheet on your desk.

  2. Morning Procedures • Go unpack at your locker before entering the room. • Enter the room by greeting Ms. Crow and others quietly. • Pay any lunch money in the lunchroom. • Use the restroom quickly and quietly. • Put your snack in your desk. • Place any money, notes, or excuses in the basket on Ms. Crow’s red desk. • Sharpen three pencils and be ready for the school day. • Make sure you have a book to read. • Read the message on the board. It will contain your morning work and other important information. • Begin morning work and then read quietly.

  3. Pencils • You should keep 2-3 sharpened pencils in your supply box at all times. • Extra pencils should be kept in your locker. • It is your responsibility to replenish your pencils when you run out. • If you come to school without a pencil, I will provide you one. However, it will cost you coins to purchase a pencil from me. • You will also have to sign the conduct book for responsibility if you continue to forget your pencil. • Pencils that are found on the floor or left in the classroom become class property and should be put in the red Crestline cup on the table near the door. If you notice one of your pencils in this cup, you will have to pay 1 coin to get it back.

  4. Sharpening Pencils • Sharpen pencils in the morning (before the bell) and at the end of the day with the classroom sharpener. • If your pencil lead breaks, you may use your handheld sharpener to sharpen it quietly during class. • Do not get up during class to use the classroom sharpener or to empty your handheld sharpener. This is why you should have several pencils already sharpened.

  5. Paper • Please keep notebook paper in all of your folders. • If you are out of paper, you may get some from the classroom paper basket in the morning before the bell or at the end of the day. • Be responsible and respectful with our paper. This means the classroom paper basket is not for making airplanes, footballs, drawing, etc. • If you are caught wasting classroom paper you will sign the conduct book for misusing classroom supplies.

  6. Restroom 1. You should only go to the restroom if you NEED to go to the restroom! 2. You should always use the restroom before school begins. You will also be given a chance to use the restroom after lunch. These times are considered “free”. 3. You may go to the restroom up to three times per day during class. However, you may not go before 8:30 am because you should go before class begins. 4. You may use the restroom without getting my permission when you are working independently at your desk. Have the President punch your bathroom card. 5. If I am teaching or someone else in the class is sharing, you must get my permission by giving me the “thumbs up” sign. I will nod my head and you may leave the room quietly. Get your bathroom card punched when you return. 6. Get a restroom pass badge from the magnetic clips near the door on your way out to the bathroom and wear it near the top of your shirt. • Use the restroom properly and quickly get back to class. This is NOT a time to talk and visit with friends. • FLUSH BEFORE YOU LEAVE! 9. Return the restroom pass badge when you get back to the room and get some hand sanitizer for your hands. 10. If no restroom passes are available, you must wait until someone returns from the restroom before you can leave. 11. Anyone caught goofing off, playing around, or misusing/wasting supplies in the restroom will sign the conduct book and have to pay coins for not being respectful and responsible. 12. Students caught making a mess in the restroom will have to help the custodians clean it up!

  12. Teacher Needs Your Attention • There are times that your attention will be needed. • The signal used will be the teacher’s arm/hand raised in the air (as if waiting to ask a question). When you see this signal, you are to: • Get quiet • Face front • Look at the teacher • Have your hands free (put everything down) • Give your total attention • This may be used in the classroom, hallway, lunchroom, outside, at an assembly, or anywhere in the school.

  13. Voice Levels You will have certain voice levels to maintain in the hallway, lunchroom, classroom, etc. Silent – no talking Whisper – very soft Regular – normal inside talking voice • You should always be SILENT when the teacher is talking, in the hallway, the first 10 minutes of lunch, and when taking a test or doing graded classwork. • WHISPER in the classroom when working in groups or with a partner. If we are not working on a graded activity and you need help, you may ask a neighbor for help by whispering. ***How to know if you are whispering – put your hands under your throat and put your thumb on one side and your index on the other if you are talking and can feel the vibration of your vocal chords you are not whispering. If the majority of the class is talking above a whisper when you have been asked to whisper, you will be put on silent. If you choose to talk when you are on silent, you will have to pay me a coin. If the talking continues, you will sign the conduct book. • You should use a REGULAR voice when talking in front of the class, reading aloud to the class, responding to a teacher, or in the lunchroom.

  14. Conduct Book • When you break a rule, you must sign the conduct book. • Use a pen from the pouch in front of the conduct book to write what happened. Do not use a pencil. Be sure you are writing on your page. • Write as neatly as possible. • Fill in the date—it is always posted on the board. • Write specifically what happened: Examples • Talking in the hallway • Pushed (student name) in the line • Running in the classroom • Talking during silent lunch • Flicked pencil across room • Goofing off in bathroom • Do not write things like: • I don’t know • Ms. Crow made me sign • ???

  15. Check whether it was behavior or responsibility. • Check the name of the teacher you were with when action happened: Halverson, Kimbrell, Crow, or Zuck. • If you sign in PE, music, or library, check that it happened there. • You begin each week with a 100. • Each time you sign for behavior or responsibility, it counts off 4 points from your weekly conduct grade. • Consequences will be given (walking laps at break) for each time signed in a day. • You will get a conduct grade each week. Then, I will average each week’s grades to get your conduct grade for the 9 weeks. • You must earn an A or B in conduct for the nine weeks to participate in the next special activity or field trip. • You must maintain a B average in conduct for the year to have the opportunity to go on the year end field trip to Montgomery.
