Classroom Expectations

I have been researching simple solutions to classroom management and creating ways to support students and staff during these challenging times in education. I was concerned about this last school year as we experienced the first phase of the possibility of school day reduction, furlough and/or cuts in pay.

Given that, my staff thought ahead of the stress that the children may come to school with resulting in a difficult learning environment. They researched possible ways to support students and our site implemented the first phase of Lesson One.

This year we are about to begin our second phase of Lesson One. This program assists students and staff with establishing policy and procedure to be followed school wide. It helps consistency on the campus, through the grades and on all areas of the school campus.

I am by far, not claiming to be an expert in this area. I am interested if anyone has information on Lesson One or any other suggestions for educators on how to become better at what we do. As we grow and change we need to be proactive and know our classroom expectations need to grow and change as well.

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you'll land among the stars!
