When you get your instrument, you sit down, and what do you do with it?

Miss Bethany's two main objectives for music class
Can more than 1 person use the bathroom at at time?
no--unless it's an emergency. I can send 1 girl and 1 boy at a time. But, really it should be 1 kid out of class at a time.
Will Miss Bethany be mad if you break something accidentally, and tell her? Is this an example of being a problem solver, being engaged, being accountable, or being kind?
No. If it was an accident, and you are honest, she will be glad. If you hide it, or do it on purpose, not so good. This would be an example of being accountable in the music room.
on the third strike you will receive...
4th-5th grades: a reflection sheet, which you will need to fill out and it will be sent home to mom/dad.
6th grade: a signature on your GRIT card.
Please explain the steps of instrument pick up.
1. Miss Bethany sees which row is ready to go.
2. One row at a time comes up to instrument cabinets.
3. *They get their instrument, walk all around the blue tape/follow the arrows*
4. They sit back to their dot, and put their instrument in front of them, without touching it.
Where do you see the monthly objectives for your class?
On the front board, next to the colored schedule. (Behind the piano) ie January Objectives, then look to your grade level.
