Consequences and Incentives 

 

INCENTIVES

Each week a student follows the classroom procedures and turns in all classroom and homework assignments, they will recieve a 50% homework pass. Meaning if their is a night that they do not complete their homework, they can fill out the missing assignment slip and use the 50% homework pass and receive a 50% as a grade instead of a "0". 

2 PASSES = 100% ON HOMEWORK !

 

CONSEUENCES

In the rare case a student fails to follow the classroom procedures or does not turn in classroom and homework assignments for that week 

  1. They lose the opportunity for a 50% homework pass
  2. We will discuss our strategy of how will get back to the side once the rest of the class is on task
  3. The "Why I Chose NOT to Follow the Class Procedure Slip" will be filled out and signed by student. Then the student will have it signed by parent or guardian and returned to class in the next class meeting. 

 

All Set?

 

I am looking forward to a great school year with you! heart
