1st Grade Expectations
In first grade, we are clear and consistent in our expectations for students. Instead of posting rules, we have a chart that says "A first grader...." that tells the students exactly what we expect from them.
A First Grader...
follows directions the first time he/she is asked
listens to the speaker (eyes on the speaker, hands in lap, body still - including mouth)
concentrates on his/her work
is polite (please, thank you, excuse me)
takes care of his/her things (locker, desk, supplies)
cleans up his/her messes
ALWAYS tries his/her best!
