Classroom Management
Tiered “Take a Break” System

Classroom Marble Jar
Throughout the day, the students transition to several classes such as PE, Music, Art, and Latin. During these times, the class can earn up to 5 marbles for our jar based on whole class behavior and participation. The class can also earn marbles for compliments by other adults in the hallways. Once we fill our marble jar, we have a marble celebration. We will determine the type of celebration as a class.
