Summary
Starting with specific examples of fantastic classroom behavior, your class will end up with one sentence summing up their expectations. It’s a classroom motto!
- As a whole group, students brainstorm specific examples of appropriate or expected classroom behavior.
- Then, in small groups, they group those specific examples into three to five groups and eventually label those groups with a one or two-word phrase.
- Finally, students use the labels of their groups to generate a sentence summing up the expectations for the year. This is your classroom motto!
