Check out our most popular procedures from the teachers here at EMIS!

Where do I go when I get here in the morning? What am I allowed to have out? Are computers allowed? Should I be reading? What do I do if I need to use the bathroom or have a question? Are you available for extra help? What voice level and I on? Where do I turn homework in or pick up materials needed for the day?

Definitely going over procedures for when students can be on the computer. -Or- including "what the computer should be doing" as a part of teaching classroom procedures. When you need students' attention, what is your signal to partially close the computer (3/4 close)?

How do we have respectful conversations. How do we show respect? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

WHat is my "do now" task? Where do I look to find my tasks? WHere do I line up?

Where do students line up for recess? What are are they allowed to play in? What things are there to do outside? What kind of behaviors should the demonstrate to be inclusive with their peers?

Have a universal signal (and review it often) as to what you do when you want the students' attention.

What are the expectations of students in the lunch room? What should my voice level sound like? Who cleans up? Do we rotate jobs? How are they selected? Where do we line up? What do we do if we need something during lunch?

Who goes in the bathroom first to check it? How many students are allowed at a time? Where do I stand when I come out? What if I have to go when I'm in the classroom?

When we are in line there will be absolutely no talking. This includes to yourself, to other teachers, to friends, or to classmates. You will stand in the third block from the wall. You should be facing forward at all times. Walk in a single file, two feet behind the person in front of you with your arms at your side or crossed in front of you. Do not stop at water fountains while we are walking down the hall. When we stop - the same rules apply as when we are moving. Do not lean on the wall, do not touch the walls. The same rules apply at the end of the day as we walk out to the bus.

What time will we pack up? Do we stack chairs? Where do we line up? Who goes out first, car riders or bus riders? What do our voices look like? Where is homework posted? How do I know what I need to do tonight?
