Establishing School Rules- Freebie

This week I will be establishing and focusing on Rules and Being Good Citizens of Our School as part our of Social Studies Curriculum.  I think it is important that the children take part in the process of creating our rules; they need to understand what they are, what they look like and why we have them.  I will use the documents below to brainstorm with the kids as we talk about each area.

I have several books that I use and I have ordered a few new ones from Amazon.   I will read these books during the week and chart our rules that we use in the classroom, hallways, cafeteria and recess.  We will then narrow down our ideas to 3-4 rules for each chart.  I plan to have the kids create posters to hang in the specific school areas displaying our expectations.  I will post our final projects at a later date.

I did not order these books but thought they might be good for younger grades.
