  1. Classroom procedures English 11 Mrs. Loosle Room 169

  2. Why should we have procedures in our classroom?

  3. Procedures are a part of life. They allow complex operations to run smoothly with minimal confusion, low stress, and less wasted time. • Airports • Driving • Restaurants • Movies • School Where else are procedures practiced?

  4. Classroom and academic expectations

  5. Classroom expectations • The atmosphere in this classroom will be formal and academic, but comfortable. • Students will work hard, learn English, and enjoy the process. • If a visitor walked into our classroom during the day, what should they see?

  6. I expect students to do the following things to make sure the classroom runs smoothly: • Attend class, and arrive on time. • Have materials ready when the bell rings. • Listen when others are speaking. • Follow directions the first time they are given • Get permission before speaking. • Be polite and respectful toward each other. • Stay on-task and focused on English.

  7. Academic expectations • Come to class on time and have materials ready. • Follow teacher’s directions and complete assignments. • Work hard and enjoy the process. • Do your best. • Do not complain; it poisons the atmosphere.

  8. Daily procedures

  9. Entering the classroom procedure • Enter the room quickly and quietly. • Pick up any handouts. • Get materials and be seated. • Read the journaling assignment posted on the board and start working. • If you finish the journal early, work on something else quietly. Don’t talk to your neighbors! • Quietly, patiently wait for instruction.

  10. Journal procedure • Pick up handouts, be seated, and gather materials for class. • Read the journaling assignment on the board and start working. • Do not wait for the teacher or the bell. • If you are on time to class and writing in your journal, I will initial the entry. Each initialed entry in worth 5 pts.; entries without initials are worth 3, so you can make up assigned journals, but I only give full points when it’s done on time. School excused absences will be marked full points also. • If you finish the journal early, find something quiet to work on while others are finishing.

  11. When you finish work early… • Quietly read a book • Organize your planner or homework • Sit quietly • Work on homework • Be patient

  12. Daily schedule • Journal assignment • Daily objective and agenda • Teacher-instructions/modeling • Student-guided instruction/practice • Assessment/closure

  13. Class opening procedures • Journal assignment time • Students work on journal • Teacher takes attendance, returns papers, and checks on individual students as needed. II. After the journal assignment • Teacher announces daily/weekly agenda. • Teacher discusses returned papers/feedback. • Journal follow up. • Daily lesson begins.

  14. Tardy procedure • Enter the classroom quietly, pick up the daily handouts, and join in the classroom activities with minimal disruption. • If your tardies continue, there will be consequences. (i.e.: talk with me, parent contact, administration involvement) • If you are tardy more than 20 minutes late to class (unexcused), it will be counted as an unexcused absence.

  15. Absence procedure • When you are absent, check with your table group to find out what you missed. Do not ask the teacher. • If you are missing work from the absence, the teacher will let you know what you are missing and provide the materials needed. • You have up to a week to complete your missed work.

  16. Listening to/ responding to questions • When we are having class discussions, raise your hand to be called on and actively listen to whoever is speaking. • Teacher will give specific instructions when students are to call out answers without first raising their hands. • Ask only questions that are relevant to the lesson. • Be respectful of all comments and ideas, even if they differ from yours.

  17. Getting the class’ attention • The teacher will say, “Listen up” or “I need your attention” and I will hold up my hand. • When you see my hand you are to: • Stop what you are doing. • Look at the teacher. • Sit quietly.

  18. Walking in the hall procedure • When we are walking in the hall (fire drills, writing lab, library): • Stay with the group. • Go quickly and quietly to the destination.

  19. End of the day dismissal procedure • Hand in daily work. • Put away materials. Make sure table area is neat and trash is picked up. • When the bell rings, be seated and look at the teacher (All students must be seated). • Teacher dismisses the class NOT the bell. • Push in chairs and proceed quickly and quietly out the door.
