Teasley Tiger Pride Progress (T2P2)• Consequences are a natural part of any learning process. • There are certain consequences to breaking classroom rules. • Each day all students begin with a fresh start. When a rule is • broken the student has to pull a card.

• Please refer to the chart below to review our consequence plan:

• 1st Card pulled the student will be on blue. Warning only.

• 2nd Card pulled the student will be on green. Note will be sent home in agenda to be signed. 5 minutes off of recess.

• 3rd Card pulled the student will be on yellow. Note will be sent home in agenda to be signed. No recess and possibly silent lunch and/or time out of room.

• 4th Card pulled the student will be on red. No recess, child will spend time out of the classroom, and possibly silent lunch. May be written up to the office.

Recess• Recess is important! I want

students to have the time to unwind. However, students will miss some recess for unfinished work and misbehavior.

School Business• Transportation changes MUST be made in writing before 1 PM

in the office. We are not allowed to accept a change through email.

• Do not drop off prior to 7:15 A.M.

• Parents MUST sign in at the front office. DO NOT just go to the classroom.

• Parent email is crucial to have on file.

• Sign up for class BLOG if you have not done so already.
