-Review Classroom Expectations & Rules Handout together

I want you to have a say in what our expectations LOOK LIKE:

1. In table groups, assign a Materials Manager, a Recorder, a Time Keeper, and a Task Manager.

2. Materials manager: please take one white board and a marker back to your table group

3. Write down ideas of what your group thinks each expectation looks like in the classroom. What are you as students doing to show respect, responsibility, engagement? For example: our group feels that listening and not talking during instruction is an example of respect.

4. I will ask each group for their best example of each expectation & we'll put them on our class poster

I need a volunteer to write on our class poster - creative types, that's you!
