  5. "Give Me 5" When I need your attention, we will use the "Give Me 5" plan -When I start to count down from 5, you start to quiet down Here is what will happen: 1. Eyes on speaker 2. Quiet 3. Be still 4. Hands free (put things down) 5. Listen

  6. Voice Levels Level 1: Barely a whisper Level 2: your group voice, or "lean-in" voice--I should not be able to hear you across the classroom Level 3: Used when answering/asking a question or adding to class discussion Level 4: Public speaking voice, used when talking to class Level 5: Yelling and screaming, never to be used except if you are on fire.

  7. No Whining Zone

  8. Beginning of class EVERYDAY there will be something posted on the board. EVERYDAY you will come in quietly and get started right away. *IF I am not in the classroom when the bell rings, you will have already started quietly on whatever assignment or activity is posted. 

  9. Sit, Agenda, Bellringer!

  10. Asking/Answering a Question Raise your hand and wait to be acknowledged by the speaker. Do not wave your hand around and say "ooh-ooh!" We are not monkeys!  Please be sure that all questions and comments are relevant to the topic.

  11. If you are late... Do not interrupt class with your reason for being late.  You may place your tardy slip or note on my desk, sit down, and begin working on what we are doing for the day.  You may speak with me after class or while others are working if you need to.

  12. Class/Group Discussion If you do not agree with classmates, don't put them down Stay silent when others are speaking Comments/questions must be relevant to the discussion

  13. Leaving your seat Please stay in your seat while I am giving instructions, while another person is speaking, or during announcements You may sharpen your pencil during work time or group time, but never while people are speaking You may throw things away during work time or group time, never while people are speaking

  14. Group Work In this class, you will be working in groups often. We will spend the next couple weeks getting used to group work. Group work in this classroom will not look like this:

  15. Group Work My expectations: • Every group member will always be participating • This also means that no one is left out • While working and discussing in your group, you will always be at voice level 2 unless presenting to the class • You will NOT complain about who is in your group. Remember the "No Whining Policy!" • If there are real issues, please speak with me privately

  16. Turning in Work (papers) • Your class has its own container at the back of the room • Please make sure your NAME is on your paper • Place your paper neatly in the container. If the papers that are already in there are messy, please take a few seconds to straighten them 

  17. Turning in Digital Work • Assignments will be given and turned in on Showbie • You will get notes from Google Drive, these do not need to be turned in. You will use them for study guides, other work, and to study for tests

  18. What Now? What to do when you are finished • Work on other unfinished work • Read a good book • Do a crossword puzzle, wordfind, or sudoko • Draw a picture • Clean up your group's area • Do jobs for the teacher

  19. Make up Work If you miss this class, you will have make up work. Check the "What Did I Miss" bulletin board for your paper work and an explanation of what you missed. See me with any questions. Other notes and assignments may be on Google Drive or Showbie. It will be clearly laid out on the 6th grade website, with links to click.

  20. Parking Lot • This is for questions or comments that we don’t have time for in class • Write it on a post it and stick it on! • I will try to answer it next class • I may also use it as a “ticket out the door” activity
