Classroom Expectations

Our Point System:

•   This is a year-long program of in-class behaviour management. Students receive points when being recognized for “good” behaviour or demonstrating good character, and  have to colour in a “dot” for poor choices or redirection. 
•   Each week, students begin with 10 points and a fresh point sheet.  Every “dot” that’s coloured in takes a point away, and the teacher is welcome to give students “points” throughout the week to bump their total.  At the end of the week, students tally their points (10 points – the number of dots + the number of bonus points) and this gets added to a cumulative total for the school year.
•   When students reach individual milestones,  they receive the reward as designated by the teacher.  Points continue to be accumulated beyond this point.

•   When the class reaches a milestone (all students achieve the milestone marker),  the class benefits from the reward.
