Communication

• Have a routine!!!• Keep things moving• Know your stuff• Plan Plan plan-

• As sister Pat says “Plan your work & work your

Plan”

Increase Time on Task

When the whistle doesn’t work…

Each kid starts on green, after a warning they move to yellow, then to red◦ The kids move their own color- removes them from the

activity and helps them to think about why they are changing their card

Intentional physical harm to another is immediately a red

Time out worksheets are used to have students to put their actions into words.

Follow up with parents

Not your normal athletic program:

Pep Squad Jump Rope/ Hula Hoop TeamBooster Club

Don’t be a part of the problem- Be a part of

the solution
