Love and logic Guidelines for Success

What is Love and Logic? Love and Logic Link

1. Be Ready - Punctual In Class Do These Things: and Prepared 2. Be Responsible - Persistent & Productive 3. Be Respectful - Positive & Polite	Classroom Expectations 1. Feel free to do anything that does not cause a problem for anyone else. 2. I teach when there are no distractions or other problems. 3. I listen to students who raise their hand. 4. I listen to one person at a time. 5. Please treat me with the same respect I treat you. 6. If someone causes a problem, I will do something. 7. What I do will depends on what happened and what the person is willing to do to solve the problem.
CLASSROOM DISCIPLINE PLAN Rules in my classroom are few. I believe that as all children are different, and all actions and reactions very personal in nature, effective discipline involves a few overriding tenets rather than a long list of specific rules. Situations are dealt with as they arise, with the focus on enabling the child to grow and learn from his or her actions.	My decisions about discipline are based on a problem-solving approach, and I will follow these principles: 1. Make academic, social, and emotional needs the top priority 2. Be logical, calm, and careful 3. Let the experience of poor choices lead to motivation for better choices. 4. Make decisions that fairly and uniquely fit the individual student
Class Rule: You may engage in any behavior that does not create a problem for you or anyone else in the classroom. (This includes the teacher)	Consequence: If you make a problem I will do something. Every problem and student is unique. What I do will depend on you, the situation, and what you are willing to do to solve the problem.
