~ Bell Work. Students know that when they come into my classroom they have bell work to start, where the bell work will be posted and that bell work is a quiet assignment that will take roughly 10 minutes. 
~ Smooth Transitions (still a work in progress, largely influenced by Jolly Ranchers and modeling). My students know that smooth transitions look like a closed Chromebook, no talking, and their body faces me so that they are ready to listen to the next set of instructions. 
~ Schedule. My lessons follow a similar daily flow so that students know when they can expect transitions to happen. ]]> 2022-09-05 15:10:29 UTC https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283211846 haleylisiecki https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283229569 Our textbook mentions that on rule that does not need to communicated the first day of school is what happens when a someone comes into the classroom unannounced (Borich, 2007). In my classroom, I have the cubbies of all of my homeroom students. When these students need something throughout the day, they will come into my classroom. Oftentimes, this disrupts my students. I need to establish (probably through modeling and more Jolly Ranchers) how to quietly come in and get what is needed without feeling the need to high five everyone they pass by. ]]> 2022-09-05 15:30:09 UTC https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283229569 haleylisiecki https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283229690 Borich, G.

1. Be kind and respectful to yourself and others
2. Actively listen when others are speaking 
3. Be positive

These rules are worded broadly on purpose, so that they may cover a variety of behavioral needs (Borich, 2007). When different situations in my classroom arise, I am always able to apply on of the rules to redirect the behavior. 

I have be positive as a rules because I try to incorporate as much social and emotional learning into my lessons as possible. The textbook that I used in my SEL classroom last year, DBT Skills in Schools, stated that if you want to feel positive emotions, you have plan activities in your day that bring you joy (Mazza, 2016). The more positive I am and my lessons are, the more likely my students are to be positive. ]]> 2022-09-05 15:40:25 UTC https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283238412 haleylisiecki https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283259370 Wong & Wong, 2018 ]]> 2022-09-05 16:02:22 UTC https://padlet.com/haleylisiecki/obfnf3s7wvuzoa/wish/2283259370
