This year I am using the Conscious Discipline  program.  This is a wonderful program that focuses on positive modeling, reinforcement and building a child's motivation to become a contributing member of a group, in this case, our classroom family.  I will be discussing this more at Back To School Night, but you may also read about it on their website. 

I will always be "Safe Keeper" because it is my job to keep the classroom safe so all children may learn and grow.

Additionally, here are some of the School Family Jobs for the children, which will rotate each week:
