At Booker T. Washington,
- Lesson Labels must be completed and posted daily for every lesson/activity that you are doing in your classroom. This includes special activities, field trips, etc.
- Use the Lesson Plan Format in ALL classes.
- Teachers must be actively supervising students at all times. This includes standing at your door during transitions, escorting students when they are moving about the building, and supervising restroom breaks.
- Teachers should plan activities such that students are actively engaged in the learning the entire time they are in your classroom (90 minutes for highschool and 50 minutes for middle school). Under no circumstances should students be allowed to lay their heads down on the desk, sleep, etc.
- Remember that culture is created. At BTW, we want a culture for learning, therefore, we must model for students how we want them to interact with each other by the way we interact with each other and them, we must model for students how we want them to dress, by how we dress, and model for students how we want them to be engaged in the classroom by providing engaging learning opportunities that help them learn and grow.
