Description of Idea
One of the ways I have been successful in deterring student misbehavior is to list my rules and then to have consequences associated with them. The following is an explanation of my warning system and consequences.
A violation of any of the above rules in a class means that a student receives an "S", a warning. A
second violation receives an "I" and the third warrants a "T". Put these together and the word SIT is spelled meaning it is time to sit out. Upon earning the third warning, or the letter "T", the
student will sit out of an activity a certain amount of time until they can
verbalize to me how they will come back to activity ready to learn.
The letters are erased and the student starts
over the next period they are in class. I have these rules typed and if constant rule breaking
continues period after period, a note goes home with the rules listed. The
parents are asked to review with the student the rules, sign the sheet and
they then can come back to class.
