Basic Features
When I began designing my classroom I thought back to how my favorite classrooms in
Elementary School were designed and tried to incorporate them and make it my own.
After entering the room there is a recycling bin and a trash-bin next to the door. I chose to
have both because I dont want paper going to waste and its a convenient place for
students to have the ability to throw things away on their way out the door (no one wants
a cluttered classroom). I chose to place another trashcan next to my, the teachers, desk at
my convenience so I wouldnt have to walk to the front of the room each time I needed to
throw something away.
While thinking about how I wanted to set up various storage throughout the room I
decided to separate the students storage from my own storage. The students storage
space will be either cubbie holes or lockers depending on school (Im personally fine
with either option). My storage space is located behind my desk so I wont have to worry
about students getting in to it. Storage includes two filing cabinets, a closet, and some
shelves. On my desk is the phone and computer.

Plan
In the front of the room there is a small desk by the projector/ smart board. This desk will
have a pencil sharpener and extra pens/pencils for the students to use. This desk will also
have a nicely organized bin for students to turn in their work. Students will be expected
to keep this desk organized and
clean to ensure that no ones work
goes missing. Underneath the
desk will be a box for lost and
found. In 5th grade students often
leave things behind.
Student Learning
In the front corner there will be a
nice big rug and a large chair.
This area will be known as the
reading corner and will be used
for various reading opportunities;
such as, individual reading time, class reading time, quiet time, etc. It will also be used as
an area where students can work in small groups and sit on the rug. I have also put a large
square rug in front of the projector/ smart board so that students can sit on the rug during
various activities and give them a chance to get out of their desks.
As we head to the back of the room you can see that there are two desks with computers
on them. This will allow students the opportunity to work on the computer during class
time. For many activities or units there will be a cycle system set up where students are at
different locations working on different things so that everyone will have the chance to
work on the computer. Students need to master various skill levels in technology, which
is why I wanted to include computers in the classroom.
There is a large desk/table in the back of
the classroom next to the teachers desk.
This desk will be used for small group
activities, to get individual help from the
teacher, or for various activities or
models where students will need more
space to work. I think it is great to have
an extra table somewhere in the
classroom so that students can work on
different work or get more individual
help from the teacher.
The walls will not be dull and white in
my classroom. There will be a bulletin board that is a calendar so that students will
always know what day it is and when various assignments/projects are due. With the
calendar there will also be a place where students can pick up work from the time they
were gone in class. There will also be places around the room where students work will

be hung up to show appreciation. By the reading corner their will be a continuous word
wall where vocab words will be added.
Classroom
Operations
Record
Keeping
It
is
my
personal
goal
to
stay
as
organized
as
possible
while
keeping
students
grades/materials
organized.
I
will
follow
whatever
record
keeping
or
databases
my
school
district
requires
of
me.
Since
technology
is
becoming
more
and
more
advanced
I
will
do
the
majority
of
my
grading
on
excel.
This
will
allow
me
to
stay
more
organized.
I
can
format
the
excel
sheet
to
be
color-coded.
This
means
that
I
will
have
scores
that
are
below
average
in
red
so
that
I
can
be
immediately
alerted
and
group
those
students
together.
I
will
have
a
different
working
excel
document
for
each
subject
to
stay
more
organized.
At
the
end
of
each
week
I
will
print
off/back
up
my
computer
to
ensure
that
I
have
my
grades
with
me
at
all
times.
The
one
bad
thing
about
technology
is
sometimes
it
crashes,
so
I
will
prevent
this
from
hurting
me
by
printing
it
off
and
keeping
it
in
a
binder.
The
binder
will
be
in
my
desk
so
that
it
stays
confidential
and
students
cannot
look
at
one
anothers
grades.
Record
keeping
is
not
just
about
grades.
I
will
also
need
to
keep
a
separate
binder
full
of
my
students
information.
This
will
be
information/documents
such
as:

Displaying
Student
Art
Work
Im
a
firm
believer
in
displaying
students
work
around
the
room
and
in
the
hallways
(if
the
school
allows
it
in
the
halls).
I
believe
that
this
allows
the
students
to
Rockefeller
5
Classroom
Management
Plan
show
off
their
work
and
be
proud
of
their
product.
I
will
be
displaying
their
work
around
the
room
using
bulletin
boards
and
even
hanging
3-D
models
from
the
ceiling.
This
truly
brightens
up
the
room
and
shows
the
students
that
the
teacher
cares
for
what
they
have
made
and
allows
their
peers
to
see
others
work
of
art.
New
Students
If
a
new
student
were
to
join
my
class
during
the
course
of
the
year,
I
would
make
sure
to
explain
to
current
students
what
is
happening.
This
is
important
because
new
students
might
be
uncomfortable
and
scared
by
coming
in
to
a
new
class
and
school
and
it
is
vital
to
explain
these
possible
feelings
to
current
students.
I
was
a
new
student
to
a
new
school
in
fourth
grade
and
was
very
nervous.
It
was
amazing
how
easy
it
was
to
slide
into
place
when
the
students
and
teacher
are
welcoming
and
make
you
feel
apart
of
something.
Once
the
student
comes
in
and
joins
the
class
I
will
reinforce
what
the
class
rules
are
and
explain
them
to
the
new
student.
This
will
be
a
good
time
for
the
rest
of
the
class
to
be
reinforced
of
the
class
rules
that
they
themselves
made
up.
During
the
students
first
week
of
school
I
will
sit
them
by
a
classmate
who
is
a
great
helper.
My
practicum
teacher
had
a
new
student
come
in
this
past
year
and
she
sat
the
new
student
next
to
a
girl
who
loved
to
help/explain
things
to
her
peers.
This
allowed
the
new
student
to
be
easily
caught
up
on
what
the
class
was
working
on.

Substitute
Teachers
I
will
have
a
binder
prepared
for
any
substitute
teacher
that
comes
to
my
classroom.
I
feel
it
is
necessary
for
substitute
teachers
to
have
all
the
rules,
classroom
procedures,
and
emergency
information
in
one
place
so
there
is
no
burden
on
the
substitute.
The
binder
will
contain:
Emergency
Information:
This
section
is
extremely
important
since
the
substitute
may
not
be
familiar
with
our
school
and
might
need
this
information.
It
will
include
the
phone
numbers
to
the
front
office,
nurse,
and
a
list
of
teachers
numbers
that
can
be
used
as
a
resource.
Along
with
his
information
will
be
the
procedures
for
tornado,
fire,
intruder,
or
any
other

List
of
Jobs-
This

a
brief

of
class
jobs
and

has
the
current

to
better

accountable.
An
Orderly
Classroom
I
will
ensure
my
class
runs
smoothly
in
an
orderly
way
by
following
Wongs
three
tips
on
how
to
teach
students
to
follow
classroom
procedures.
These
three
things
include
1)
to
teach,
2)
to
rehearse,
and
lastly
3)
to
reinforce.
This
means
that
I
will
first
teach
my
students
what
the
rules
are
in
our
classroom.
Then
we
will
practice
following
the
rules
together.
And
finally
I
will
reinforce
the
rules
that
are
in
place
by
following
through
with
the
consequence.

Classroom
Management
Plan
Actions,
not words, define our rules.
-Robert
J
Mackenzie
On
the
first
day
of
school
I
will
introduce
the
classroom
rules
to
the
class.
These
rules
will
be
stated
to
the
class
as
guidelines
in
creating
their
own
3-5
rules/procedures
for
the
classroom.
I
believe
that
it
is
important
for
the
students
to
be
involved
in
this
process
so
that
they
will
hold
themselves
more
accountable,
especially
by
the
time
they
are
in
fourth
grade.
The
rules
I
introduce
will
be
the
rules
found
in
Setting
Limits
in
the
Classroom;
Cooperate
with
your
teacher
and
classmates,
respect
the
rights
and
property
of
others,
and
carry
out
your
basic
student
responsibilities
(2010).
After
students
have
created
the
rules
for
the
classroom,
we
will
hang
it
up
on
the
wall
to
show
its
importance.
The
picture
shows
an
example
of
the
rules
students
create
and
how
it
will
look
in
the
classroom.
Infractions
While
handling
students
misbehaving
in
class
I
will
use
the
democratic
approach
as
seen
in
Setting
Limits
in
the
Classroom.
This
means
that
I
will
be
both
firm
and
respectful
with
the
student
to
show
that
I
do
mean
what
Im
saying
and
will
be
carrying
through
with
what
Im
saying.
My
focus
in
the
class
will
be
to
learn
and
teach,
which
means
that
I
do
not
want
my
students
sent
to
the
office
or
miss
the
majority
of
the
lesson.
I
will
explain
to
the
student
what
they
have
done
wrong
and
then
will
follow
through
with
the
consequence
I
have
given.
I
know
that
I
will
come
to
a
situation
where
students
push
the
limits
to
far
and
I
will
implement
the
time-out
system.
This
means
that
after
I
have
explained
to
the
student
what
they
have
done
wrong
and
asked
them
to
stop
and
they
continue
that
bad
behavior
I
will
sit
them
away
from
their
classmates
in
the
back
of
the
room.
This
way
the
student
will
still
be
able
to
listen
to
the
instruction
that
is
going
on
and
if
after
enough
time
of
them
behaving
they
can
rejoin
the
class.
But
in
the
rare
cases
Rockefeller
8
Classroom
Management
Plan
that
the
student
continues
to
act
out,
that
student
will
be
removed
from
the
situation
and
placed
in
a
trusted
colleagues
classroom.
This
will
show
the
student
that
you
meant
what
you
had
said
and
will
allow
you
to
continue
teaching
the
class
with
no
disruption
from
that
particular
student.
Instead they maintained a respectful
attitude, held their ground firmly, stated
their rules and expectation clearly, and
followed through with instructive
consequences when students did not chose to
cooperate.
Once
the
student
has
completed
their
time
in
time-out
zone
I
will
treat
them
as
if
they
have
a
clean
slate.
This
means
that
I
will
not
hold
a
grudge
or
act
disappointed
by
that
child.
It
is
important
to
show
the
student,
especially
the
next
day
that
you
still
care
for
them
and
respect
them.
Student
Respect:
Put-Downs
vs.
Boost-Ups
My
seventh
grade
teacher
had
a
system
that
helped
manage
our
respect
towards
our
peers.
I
really
liked
how
she
carried
through
with
this
because
it
kept
our
classroom
environment
friendly
and
made
us
all
show
respect
towards
each
other.
A
put-down
is
where
one
student
would
say
something
mean
to
another
student,
hurt
someone
elses
feelings,
or
put
down
someones
opinion.
Anytime
someone
would
do
one
of
those
things,
the
teacher
or
a
classmate
would
call
that
student
out
on
it
and
say
no
putdowns
in
class
then
the
student
would
have
to
turn
around
and
say
two
boost-
ups
to
whoever
they
put-down.
A
boost-up
is
any
form
of
compliment
or
apology.
I
believe
that
in
the
upper
elementary
grades
and
in
middle
school,
this
type
of
system
would
work
to
keep
students
respectful
of
one-another.
Because
students
are
allowed
to
call
each
other
out
on
being
mean
there
is
more
student
accountability.
Students
learn
how
to
better
interact
with
one
another
and
it
showed
that
there
is
a
zero
tolerance
for
bullying
or
negativity.
Bullying
There
will
be
a
zero
tolerance
for
bullying
in
my
classroom.
Any
type
of
bullying,
verbal,
physical,
emotional,
or
cyber
will
not
be
tolerated
and
will
be
addressed
immediately.
I
will
follow
any
rules
that
my
school/district
has
on
bullying
and
put
those
into
action.
I
believe
that
bullying
needs
to
be
stopped
and
if
I
see
any
student
bullying
another
student
I
will
talk
with
that
specific
student
in
a
one-on-one
setting
to
take
action
to
ensure
the
safety
of
my
students.
Rockefeller
9
Classroom
Management
Plan
Playground
Conflicts
I
strongly
believe
that
playground
rules/conflicts
need
to
follow
a
protocol
that
puts
students
safety
first.
If
students
are
not
following
the
rules
and
behaving
in
an
unsafe
manor
they
will
need
to
have
a
punishment
to
show
how
seriously
the
school
takes
playground
safety.
If
students
are
misbehaving
they
will
have
to
sit
by
the
teacher
(by
the
fence
or
wall)
for
a
certain
amount
of
time.
I
know
that
when
I
was
in
school
this
method
worked
because
no
one
wanted
to
miss
recess
time.
Lack
of
Motivation
Many
students
will
go
through
a
phase
of
not
wanting
to
complete
their
work
and
not
feeling
motivated
by
anything
in
the
classroom.
Keeping
every
single
student
motivated
in
the
classroom
will
be
one
of
my
toughest
jobs,
but
it
is
important.
This
is
a
very
circumstantial
type
of
obstacle
that
will
be
different
for
every
student.
If
I
notice
a
student
who
is
unmotivated
by
their
independent
reading
I
will
offer
a
list
of
books
or
try
to
find
something
in
that
interests
them.
The
key
to
fighting
unmotivated
students
is
to
learn
about
their
interests
and
what
drives
them
to
want
to
learn
more.
The best teachers dont give you the answers. They
just point the way and let you make your own
choices, your own mistakes. That way you get all
the glory. And you deserve it.
Mr. Schwester
Cheating
Cheating
will
not
be
allowed
nor
tolerated
in
my
classroom.
With
all
the
information
on
the
web
there
will
be
numerous
opportunities
for
students
to
plagiarize
their
work
or
even
copy
from
their
peers.
Students
will
know
my
expectation
of
them
and
know
that
I
do
not
tolerate
this
type
of
behavior.
One
of
my
past
elementary
school
teachers
had
a
system
of
1,
2,
3.
In
this
system
if
you
were
caught
cheating
once
you
would
be
warned
and
had
to
do
the
test/quiz/paper
again.
If
you
were
caught
cheating
twice
you
would
have
a
note
sent
home
to
your
parents
explaining
the
situation.
And
if
you
were
caught
cheating
three
times
you
would
have
to
have
a
conference
with
your
parents,
teacher,
and
possibly
the
principal
if
his/her
schedule
allowed
it.
This
rule
will
be
in-place
so
students
know
how
serious
it
is
when
you
do
not
do
your
own
work.
Rockefeller

Classroom
Management
Plan
Principal
Involvement
I
believe
that
principals
should
only
be
used
for
disciplinary
if
it
is
an
absolute
must.
Principals
do
so
much
for
the
school
and
are
usually
busy
throughout
the
day
carrying
out
their
duties/responsibilities.
I
will
only
use
office
referrals
if
the
student
has
not
been
following
the
rules
and
pushing
the
boundaries
repeatedly
for
a
long
period
of
time
and
the
principal
must
be
involved.
A rule is a dare to be broken, whereas a
procedure is not.
-Wong
Routines/Procedures
The
most
effective
classroom
is
a
classroom
that
has
procedures.
These
procedures
will
become
routines
for
the
students,
thus
making
the
classroom
predictable,
which
ensures
students
will
feel
safe.
My
classroom
will
follow
a
very
similar
day-to-day
plan,
which
means
that
we
will
have
subject
areas
taught
around
the
same
time
each
day.
This
will
help
students
know
what
is
coming
next
and
they
wont
feel
surprised
or
intimidated
throughout
the
day.
This
is
key
to
making
students
feel
comfortable.
During
the
first
week
of
school
I
will
teach
my
students
classroom
management
skills
so
that
they
can
get
into
the
swing
of
my
expectations
of
them
(Wong).
Students
will
be
assigned/given
jobs
throughout
the
year.
These
jobs
are
more
so
a
list
of
classroom
helpers.
Students
will
be
rotated
to
different
jobs
each
week
so
that
each
student
can
have
a
chance
at
every
position.
The
list
of
jobs
and
whom
they
belong
to
each
week
will
be
posted
on
the
bulletin
board
or
white
board
in
the
front
of
the
room.
It
will
be
posted
there
so
that
the
students
are
held
accountable
and
if
any
sub
were
to
come
into
the
class
they
will
know
which
student
has
which
job.
Jobs
and
descriptions
are
as
follows:
Rockefeller
11
Classroom
Management
Plan
Line
Leader:
This
is
a
very
important
job
and
will
be
given
to
a
student
who
has
been
following
the
class
procedures
and
being
exceptional.
Students
will
know
that
it
is
a
privilege
to
lead
the
lines
out
in
the
hallway,
going
to
lunch,
and
recess.
Office
Messenger:
This
student
will
have
the
privilege
of
going
to
the
office
when
needed
to
pick
up
things
for
the
teacher
such
as
copies,
attendance
sheets,
etc.
Papergirl/boy:
Two
students
will
hold
this
job/position
each
week.
These
students
will
be
in
charge
of
passing
back
papers
to
their
classmates
and
picking
up
papers
when
needed.
Plants:
Whichever
student
has
this
job
for
the
week
will
get
to
water
all
of
the
plants
in
the
room.
It
will
teach
students
to
take
care
of
the
things
in
the
class.
Pick-Up
(trash)
Duty:
Before
we
leave
the
classroom
for
the
day
and
go
home,
the
student
who
is
on
Pick-up
duty
or
trash
duty
will
look
around
the
room
and
make
sure
that
everything
is
neat
and
tidy
so
the
custodians
do
not
have
to
work
especially
hard
in
our
classroom.
Door
Holder/
Caboose:
The
student
who
is
the
door
holder/caboose
will
be
in
charge
of
holding
doors
for
the
class
to
exit
the
room
and
then
will
follow
at
the
end
of
the
class
line.
Differentiation
As
a
teacher,
I
know
the
importance
of
differentiation
and
will
be
extremely
proactive
in
this
area.
I
will
have
numerous
student
centers
for
activities
in
all
of
my
subject
areas.
These
will
be
used
as
frequently
as
possible.
Student
centers
allow
a
blend
of
whole-class,
group,
and
individual
instruction,
which
will
allow
me
to
better
differentiate
for
my
student.
This
will
allow
me
to
continually
assess
students
so
that
Im
always
aware
of
where
they
stand
in
my
class.
Another
word
for
teacher
is
coach
and
thats
exactly
what
I
will
be
towards
my
students.
I
will
constantly
and
continually
raise
the
ceilings
for
all
of
my
students.
Its
important
to
do
this
often
to
ensure
that
talented
and
gifted
students
(TAG)
are
being
motivated
to
learn.
On
the
other
end,
struggling
learners
need
to
be
pushed
as
well
in
a
different
way.
Make
sure
that
you
are
praising
students
often
for
their
successes;
this
will
further
motivate
them
to
push
themselves
and
gain
deeper
comprehension.
Rockefeller
12
Classroom
Management
Plan
Equal
Teaching
Vs.
Equitable
Teaching
This
category
can
also
be
placed
under
differentiation
because
it
emphasizes
that
teachers
be
equitable
rather
than
equal.
Many
people
believe
that
equal
education
means
that
teachers
will
give
each
student
the
exact
same
tools
and
assistance
as
each
of
their
peers
in
the
classroom.
I
truly
believe
that
is
not
the
correct
path
to
go
while
teaching.
I
believe
that
you
must
give
students
what
is
needed
in
order
to
give
him
or
her
the
opportunity
to
have
the
same
learning
experience
as
their
peers.
This
means
that
if
a
child
is
gifted
you
give
them
a
more
advanced
worksheet
than
their
peers,
thus
pushing
them
at
their
level
of
learning.
A
metaphor
that
one
of
my
professors
gave
in
one
of
my
classes
is
that
if
two
children
are
watching
a
game
(one
student
is
much
taller
than
the
other)
you
wouldnt
just
leave
the
shorter
student
on
the
ground
(aka
giving
them
the
same
tools).
Instead,
you
would
grab
a
bench
or
chair
for
the
smaller
student
so
they
too
can
watch
the
game.
Teachers
must
use
individualized
teaching
strategies
to
keep
each
student
engaged
in
class.
Parental
Involvement
I
will
keep
the
parents
involved
starting
on
the
first
day.
I
know
that
this
will
be
a
difficult
task
since
every
parent
is
different
and
plays
a
different
role
in
their
childs
life.
For
this
reason,
I
will
keep
this
relationship
as
positive
as
possible.
Depending
on
the
district
I
will
meet
individually
with
the
parents
so
that
I
can
better
understand
the
background
of
the
student
(Sue
Jones).
During
this
meeting
I
will
show
the
parent
that
they
are
the
expert
on
their
child
and
that
this
will
help
me
build
a
bridge
between
classroom
life
and
home
life.
During
the
school
year
I
will
have
a
website
posted
for
the
class
that
gives
parents
the
ability
to
see
what
is
happening
in
the
classroom
on
a
week-to-week
basis.
This
will
have
a
list
of
upcoming
tests,
homework
assignments,
and
any
projects
that
are
coming
up.
Its
extremely
important
that
the
parents
have
no
surprises
about
what
is
going
on
in
the
classroom.
Compliment
Jar
Working
in
a
school
is
an
extremely
collaborative
effort.
In
many
instances
teachers,
staff/faculty,
parent
helpers,
and
other
adults
are
in
and
out
of
the
classroom
and
will
have
the
opportunity
to
observe/help
out
with
our
class.
Its
extremely
Rockefeller
13
Classroom
Management
Plan
important
to
me
that
the
class
is
on
their
best
behavior
and
be
respectful
to
the
adults
around
the
building.
So,
I
will
have
a
compliment
jar
in
our
class.
Anytime
one
of
my
students
or
the
class
receives
a
compliment
from
another
adult
on
their
behavior
they
will
get
to
put
a
scoop
of
raw
corn
into
the
jar.
When
the
jar
becomes
full
the
students
will
be
able
to
get
a
special
treat
of
their
choice;
cookies,
cupcakes,
popcorn,
brownies,
etc.
the
next
day.
Field
Trips
Field
trips
are
a
great
way
to
better
engage
students
in
what
they
are
learning
about
and
allows
them
the
opportunity
to
truly
experience
the
unit
and
possibly
use
hands
on
materials.
Yet,
field
trips
can
cause
a
teacher
a
lot
of
stress
because
they
will
always
be
worried
about
their
students
behaving
and
everything
going
smoothly.
There
will
be
stricter
of
rules
for
the
students
while
going
on
a
fieldtrip.
Students
must
follow
these
rules
to
ensure
their
safety
and
to
respect
the
facility
they
are
in.
If
students
do
not
follow
the
rules
below
they
will
lose
their
opportunity
to
attend
the
next
field
trip
and
may
have
further
consequences
depending
on
the
behavior.
Listen
to
the
teachers,
parent
chaperones,
and
the
facilitators
Stay
with
the
group
you
were
assigned
to
Be
on
time
Use
your
quiet
voices
Leaving
the
Classroom
Whenever
students
leave
the
classroom
the
teacher
needs
to
know
where
that
student
is
going
and
approximately
how
long
they
will
be
gone.
This
is
to
ensure
the
safety
of
that
student
is
coming
first
and
allows
the
teacher
to
uphold
their
classroom
responsibility
of
the
students.
I
will
have
a
bathroom
pass
that
my
students
will
use
when
they
need
to
use
the
restroom.
The
students
will
remove
the
pass
from
where
it
is
placed
in
the
room
and
put
it
on
their
desk.
The
pass
will
be
brightly
colored
so
it
stands
out.
Now,
when
the
teacher
glances
around
the
room
they
will
be
able
to
easily
see
who
is
gone
because
the
bright
bathroom
pass
is
on
their
desk.
This
also
avoids
any
germs
that
are
in
the
bathroom,
since
the
pass
never
leaves
the
room.

Plan
Free
Time
I
realize
that
every
student
works
at
a
different
pace
and
will
be
finishing
various
class
work
at
different
times,
which
means
there
will
be
free
time
for
students
throughout
the
day.
Being
someone
who
loves
productivity,
I
want
my
students
to
use
this
time
wisely
and
continue/deepen
their
learning.
At
the
beginning
of
the
school
year
I
will
explain
to
my
class
what
they
can
be
doing
during
this
time
and
will
have
a
chart
hanging
around
the
room
to
remind
students
of
their
free
time
expectations.
This
is
a
working
chart
so
students
can
continue
adding
productive
things
to
it
throughout
the
year.
Professionalism
Each
day
is
a
new
day
in
my
mind.
This
means
I
will
go
into
class
wearing
professional
attire
and
bring
a
positive
attitude.
This
positive
attitude
will
show
the
students
that
I
am
ready
to
learn
and
will
create
a
safe/positive
learning
environment.
Part
of
being
a
professional
is
timeliness.
I
will
show
my
respect
towards
my
principal
and
school
by
being
on
time
each
and
everyday
and
stay
the
whole
day
and
longer
if
my
students
need
it.
My
students
come
first.
Disagreements
with
Colleagues
There
is
bound
to
be
drama
and
disagreements
while
working
with
colleagues
in
such
a
collaborative
setting.
As
easy
as
it
is
to
get
sucked
up
in
this
drama
I
will
have
to
be
consciously
aware
that
speaking
about
particular
students
in
teacher
lounges/cafeteria
is
going
against
student/teacher
confidentiality.
If
I
ever
find
myself
in
a
position
where
one
of
my
colleagues
is
being
disrespectful
or
negative
towards
another
staff
member,
teacher,
or
student
I
will
politely
excuse
myself
from
the
conversation.
If
I
cannot
escape
the
conversation,
I
will
politely
and
respectful
let
my
colleagues
know
that
I
do
not
want
to
engage
in
this
type
of
activity.
I
know
that
this
will
be
difficult,
but
I
want
to
be
a
positive
role
model
to
not
just
my
students,
but
also
my
colleagues.

Favorites
I
know
that
not
having
favorites
will
be
one
of
my
biggest
struggles
as
an
educator.
After
listening
to
Sue
speak
to
our
class
about
teachers
being
equitable
to
their
students,
I
know
that
this
means
to
treat
students
how
they
need
to
be
treated
to
better
their
successes
in
the
classroom.
This
means
that
I
wont
have
favorite
students
and
treat
them
extra
special
because
I
enjoy
their
personality,
instead
I
will
treat
the
students
in
a
manner
that
betters
their
learning
environment.
