The place where your used paper towels go after you wash your hands.
The garbage can. Not the floor! Please don't leave paper towels or pieces of toilet paper on the floor. No one likes to use a dirty bathroom...help out and clean up!
100
True or False: You can share food at school.
False. Please only eat the food your family wants you to eat. Eating your friends' food means they don't get the energy they need to learn and feel good. If you need extra food, you need to talk with an adult in the cafeteria.
100
True or False: You should run to class if you are late.
False. Please walk quickly and quietly to class.
100
What are some reasons why it is important to walk quietly to and from recess?
So not one gets hurt. So other students can continue to learn. When coming back from recess and waiting in the hallway for your teacher, please remember that your voices still need to be quiet.
200
The only place for soap to go.
Your hands! Not the floor. Please clean up any spills so that no one slips and falls.
200
True or False: You should NEVER eat any vegetables!
FALSE! It is SO important to get all sorts of different types of food into your body so that you can feel good, be healthy and be able to learn. Please eat as many vegetables as possible! Your body will give you the energy you need to be happy and healthy.
200
True or False: If there are a lot of people in the hall, you should push your way through them to get where you need to go.
False. Please make sure there is space between your body and someone else's body before you go by them. Never push through a group of people or yell to get them out of your way.

Where can you kick playground balls around?
On the field. Please don't kick the balls undercover. Too many kids are getting hurt from a ball that is kicked undercover. It isn't safe to do that, so please don't.

Is the bathroom the best place for spending your recess?
Nope. Please only use the bathroom to take care of your business!
300
True or False: You don't really have to be nice to others at lunch.
FALSE! Please be just as kind to others as you are in class. If you are frustrated or upset with another student, please take a deep breath and count to 3 before you try and solve the problem. Remember Kelso....sometimes "Wait and Cool Off" is the best thing to do! If you need help, there are lots of adults that want to help you learn how to solve your problems. Talk to someone you trust!
300
True or False: When you are in the hallway you should spend as much time as possible looking at things on the wall in order to avoid your classroom.
False. Of course. Please go directly to your destination. For example: If you need to use the bathroom, go straight there and do your business--then go straight back to where you were.
300
Where is the best place for the bark chips?
ON THE GROUND! Please do not kick or throw bark chips.
400
What do you need to get before you go to the bathroom?
A pass! Always get a pass.
400
Who's job is it to clean up after you finish your lunch?
YOURS! It is your responsibility to leave the tables and floors just as clean as they were (if not cleaner!). Please look around and pick up any garbage you see off the table or underneath. Even if it isn't yours! That is the kind thing to do!
400
True or False: If you see your friend down the hallway and you want them to wait for you to walk to recess, you should start walking quickly and quietly until you catch up with them.
True. Please don't yell down the hallway to get your friend's attention. Please don't run to catch up. By walking quickly and quietly you are being respectful and safe!
400
What game is no longer safe enough to play at recess.
TAG! Too many kids have gotten hurt because of this game. It isn't safe to play at school. Chasing games are just as dangerous. Don't play them! Please don't run away from someone you don't want to talk to. They might think you are playing a game and run after you. If you play 'tag' know that you will be asked to stop and walk the track for the rest of recess.

These behaviors will get you into trouble: A. Being quiet and respectful. B. Not talking when you are in the bathroom. C. Writing on the walls (graffiti), dumping soap on the floor (on purpose), and locking the doors and crawling underneath.
C. Did you know that the students that do these things are asked not to use the student bathrooms for a few weeks. They have to use the bathroom in the Nurse's Office and have to check in each time with the office staff. They also get a referral for their choices. It creates more work for our custodian and means we have to close off that bathroom until it can be cleaned up. These choices affect all the kids at school. Please don't disrespect our school like this.

True or False: Everything should go in the garbage when you are done with it.
False. Remember, we recycle here at our school. If you have a water bottle, please put it in the tall recycling bin. If you drink Capri Suns, we are still recycling those too! Please drink all the juice, take out the straw and leave the pouch flat. Student Council Members help with the recycling of these everyday. We send them off for money so that we can help others. Last month Student Council decided to donate the money to buy safe drinking water for families in other countries. Your recycling helps other people! Please recycle!!
500
True or False: The ramps that lead to the cafeteria are there for you to run down!
False. Please walk slowly down the ramps and use the handrail if you need help to keep from running. Pretend you have 'marshmallow' feet to keep the noise level down too. Remember, there are classes and offices downstairs. All the noise you make upstairs can be heard downstairs. This includes your classrooms and the main hallways. Quiet feet upstairs allows for more learning downstairs.

When you forget to follow the safety rules out at recess, what will you be asked to do?
Walk the track for the rest of your recess. Please know that too many kids have been getting hurt at recess when students aren't following rules. If an IA asks you more than 1 time to stop doing something specific (like using unkind words, not following game rules or not keeping your body to yourself) you will be asked to stop playing and walk the track. It is important to be kind to others at recess. Remember, recess is a chance to take a break. If you are having a friendship problem, use your recess to "Wait and Cool Off" and find different students to play with. Recess should be a fun time for everyone!
