You raised your hand three times today but someone else was called on. What should you do?
Keep being patient and raise your hand. There are a lot of chances to talk.
Why don’t we normally get water or use the bathroom during when the teacher is teaching?
Because we may miss important teaching or directions and interrupt learning.
Your classmate says something mean to you once. What do you do?
Calmly say, “Stop,” move away, ignore a minor comment, or use an appropriate problem-solving strategy. If they keep doing it, find an adult.

In the white bookshelf at the front.
What should your hands and feet do? Why?
Stay still so they don't bother others.

Wait until quite work time and then get your water bottle.
What makes something a big problem that an adult needs to know about right away?
Someone could be hurt, someone is unsafe, serious bullying/threatening behavior is happening, something dangerous is happening, or the problem cannot be safely solved by students.
