Classroom Procedures

"Rules and routines help a classroom run smoothly and frees up more time for the teaching of academics" -NEA

The following pages are a sample of the procedures being used in the classroom.

Safety

Every student needs to feel safe in a classroom to be productive. This is not just physical safety but includes feeling safe to share, to try, and to fail. We learn by doing.

Health

 

Sitting for long periods of time is unhealthy. It is bad for blood flow and it slows your metabolism. Allowing students to get up and move around can lead to better critical thinking.

Social

 

Older students seek social interaction with peers. Providing structured time for talk about content with other students has shown to be highly succesful for understanding.
