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.
