8 Expectations Implementation Resource for Elementary
with Special Section for “The First Eight Days of School”
Want to build a Climate of Respect? These are resources that work!
Focusing on these Eight Expectations for Living has proven effective in thousands of classrooms. Making these 8 “We will…..” affirmations daily gives everyone the same language, the same goals, and transforms behavior.
“They simply become who we are! We just measure our choices and behavior to these Eight!”
Eight complete lesson plans use introductory, cooperative, reading and writing strategies, literature, music, vocabulary (includes sign language and Spanish), posters, and task cards to integrate high academics and social skills. Combined with a supporting life principle they give you all you need to build a community of learners from day one.
Example:
Expectation #1:
“We will value one another as unique and special individuals.”
Begin with all of your learners asserting this positive standard along with the life principle of Friendship.
Add 7
more “We will…” affirmations and the life principles, Respect, Courtesy, Esprit de corps, Service, Effort, Perseverance, Integrity, and you’ll have your foundation for a positive classroom climate.
Tie it all together with a special group of “First Eight Days of School” tools including checklists to aid in planning for those essential procedures for positive classroom management and detailed ‘HOW TO’ step-by-step documents. Designed for grades Pre-K – 5.
