This Week's Challenge...Non-Verbal Signals
Now that you've created your Social Contracts, it's time to start introducing and utilizing those non-verbal signals to create self-managing classroom. Start working on these with your classrooms:
- Time Out – leader uses with class
- Sidewards thumb – students use with each other to check themselves
- A signal for fouls
Some reminders when using fouls:
-If it is called it counts
-Not a joke or toy
-Someone can call a foul for someone else
-If foul called no explanation needed and must give 3 put ups
-It must be referred to constantly – not just an chart on the wall (visit at least once a week)
Tips for utilizing signals:
- It must be used (expectations, fouls, signals)
- It must be modeled
