Classroom Expectations

CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS
All students are expected to follow the school rules while coming to, leaving, and during Speech-Language Therapy sessions.   All rules are designed to acknowledge and reinforce positive behavior.  Speech Room Rules include: 1.  Walk in the hallways on the way to and from Speech; 2.  Use your manners (listen when someone else is talking, look at the person you are talking to, use an ‘inside voice’, take turns talking); and 3.  Try your best.  These rules are posted in the therapy room and are also included in each child’s speech therapy folder.

BEHAVIOR PLAN AND REWARD SYSTEMS
Stickers, stamps, or other motivational rewards, are used to encourage interaction and participation in Speech-Language Therapy class.  Following the rules each session earns the student a sticker or stamp for his or her folder.  At the end of the each month, a student who has earned all the appropriate stickers or stamps will earn the treat for the month.  Possible rewards at the end of the month include: party horns, bouncy balls, sidewalk chalk, pencils, rings, bubbles or, on occasion, candy.
