Using the restroom!
Leaving the Classroom
Emergency Procedures
Entering the Classroom
• Voice Level 1
• Find seats
• Make sure to use the restroom and Sharpen
pencils before bell rings
• Copy the Learning Target into your notebook
• When the bell rings your voice level should
become 0 and your attention should be on
me
Attendance
• Voice level 0
• No one should be talking while I take
attendance
• When your name is called you should say
here, present, etc…
Tardiness
• School Policy states that you receive 5 tardy
marks, then a teacher doc should be issued.
• I will be strict on tardiness b/c it takes away
from instructional time and is a distraction to
my classroom.
Learning Situations

Small Group
Assessment
Transitions
• Inside the classroom:
– Voice level is 0
– Bring all needed materials
• Outside the classroom:
– When traveling as a class in the hallway voice
level must remain at a level 0-1. The line must
stop at every corner/turn and wait for me to
reach the front of the line.
PBIS PROCEDURESSHOULD BE FOLLOWED
DOOR

during the instructional class period.
• Students should NOT open the door for
anyone.

the classroom (i.e. going to the office or
restroom)
Restroom
• If you need to use the restroom during class you
must have your agenda.
• hold your agenda up and I will signal in one of three
ways: nodding my head yes, shaking my head no, or
holding up one finger (this means in a little bit).
• Place your agenda on the front table open to the
correct date, next to the sign-out sheet/ fill out the
sign-out sheet and take the pass (leave your agenda).
