Rules and Routines for your classroom play an integral role in the organization of the school day. They bring peace and tranquility knowing what to expect and how to do things properly to avoid chaos and an overall crazy atmosphere. I love routines and honestly feel pretty out of sorts when I don’t follow them. I try to be relaxed, laid back and “go with the flow” but in reality, I am not, and I crave my norms and my predictable schedules. Beginning of the school year for everyone is a chaotic and exciting time.
Take the stress and anxiety out of your planning so you can ease into a relaxed and organized school year with your students. Each product of this bundle incorporates books, posters, schedule cards and activities to help your students get their rules and routines for your classroom down throughout the school day! There is a color version and a black and white version so you can print them at school and not use up all of your valuable colored ink!
These provide clarity and visuals for your classroom. Here are the individual covers for each one and they also come in one big bundle to save you some money.
Bathroom Rules and Routines (with handwashing)
This resource has easy readers for boys and for girls, posters and visual cards. Use as many of these cards as you want or the child needs to become independent in the bathroom! Handwashing visual cards are also available to post by the sink for visual reminders.
Bus Rules and Routines
Use the easy readers, posters, activity mats and visual cards to help your students understand the importance of bus safety. Perfect visual to post by your door before getting on the bus. Put some of these visuals on a ring for that student who seems to struggle with his/her bus rides. Perfect reminders of what to do and what not to do!
Hallway Rules
Who doesn’t have that one student who loves to yell and run when he/her is in the hallway? Nip it in the bud with these books, posters, visual cards and activity mats. Use the cards as a game with the mat to figure out the appropriate behaviors in the hallway and the inappropriate behaviors. Give yourself a break with talking and use visuals instead!
Playground Rules
Once again, stop having to talk SO MUCH! I know I get exhausted from all of the talking I do and I am sure my students tap out after so many words. Use these visual elements to help your students on the playground. Awesome visual to post by the door before going onto the playground or bring a set of pictures with a ring to show your students the visuals when you’re outside of safe behaviors.
RULES and ROUTINES BUNDLE!
Get all of these in a BUNDLE for easy access and to save you some money. Get yourself ready to tackle behaviors before they even start!!
