The classroom consists of 19 students. Of the 19, fourteen are boys and five are girls.There is one ESL student who has excelled since he first arrived in the USA at the beginning of the calendar year. He spoke no English in May of 2010 and now he is able to speak, read, and write only one level below the lowest level second grader in the class! In the class, there are 5 separate reading levels.

**We promise to...**
On top of these posted rules, there is a voice level poster that has been explained and is routinely brought to attention. The class understands the voice number that each activity is assigned and if they do not, it is explained. The environment is very relaxed, and the teacher does understand that a classroom of 7 and 8 year olds will never be completely silent. No punishment is issued for acceptable conversation unless otherwise warned.
 * be respectful.
 * be safe.
 * be responsible.
 * be helpful.
 * do our best.
 * not talk over others.

There is a bulletin board that keeps a running tally of sorts for the students who routinely follow the rules. At the end of the week, a student is chosen as the behavior example and given a petal to add to their flower. When 7 petals are collected, they earn a homework pass to use when ever they chose to.======

Behavior is monitored and kept up through a color chart. Below you will find the consequences of each color.
