The Essential 55 (By Ron Clark) Rule 1: Responding to adults When responding to any adult, you must answer by saying ??Yes ma??am?? or ??No sir.?? Just nodding your head or saying any other form of yes or no is not acceptable. Rule 2: Making eye contact Make eye contact. When someone is speaking, keep your eyes on him or her at all times. If someone makes a comment, turn and face that person. Rule 3: Congratulating a classmate If someone in the class wins a game or does something well, we will congratulate that person. Claps should be of at least three seconds in length with the full part of both hands meeting in a manner that will give the appropriate clap volume. Rule 4: Respect other students?? comments, opinions, and ideas During discussions, respect other student??s comments, opinions, and ideas. When possible, make statements like, ??I agree with John, and I also feel that . . .?? or ??I disagree with Sara. She made a good point, but I feel that . . .?? or ??I think Victor made an excellent observation, and it made me realize . . .?? Rule 5: If you win, do not brag; if you lose, do not show anger. If you win or do well at something, do not brag. If you lose, do not show anger. Instead, say something like, ??I really enjoyed the competition, and I look forward to playing you again,?? or ??Good game,?? or don??t say anything at all. To show anger or sarcasm, such as ??I wasn??t playing hard anyway. You really aren??t that good,?? shows weakness. Rule 6: If you are asked a question in conversation, ask a question in return. If you are asked a question in conversation, you should ask a question in return. If someone asks, ??Did you have a nice weekend??? you should answer the question and then ask a question in return. For example: Me: ??Did you have a nice weekend??? You: ??Yes, I had a great time. My family and I went shopping. What about you? Did you have a nice weekend??? It is only polite to show others that you are just as interested in them as they are in you. Rule 7: Cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough and say excuse me. When you cough or sneeze or burp, it is appropriate to turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. Using a fist is not acceptable. Afterward, you should say, ??Excuse me.?? Rule 8: Do not show disrespect with gestures. Do not smack your lips, tsk, roll your eyes, or show disrespect with gestures. Rule 9: Always says thank you when given something. Always say thank you when I give you something. If you do not say it within three seconds after receiving the item, I will take it back. There is no excuse for not showing appreciation. Rule 10: When you receive something, do not insult the gift or the giver. When you are given something from someone never insult that person by making negative comments about the gift or by insinuating that it wasn??t appreciated. Rule 11: Surprise others by performing random acts of kindness. 1 Surprise others by performing random acts of kindness. Go out of your way to do something surprisingly kind and generous for someone at least once a month. Rule 12: When grading other students?? papers, give only the correct grade. Rule 13: When we read together in class, you must follow along. If I call on you to read, you must know exactly where we are and begin reading immediately. Rule 14: Answer all written and oral questions with a complete answer. For example, if a person asks, ??How are you??? instead of just responding by saying, ??Fine,?? you should say, ??I??m doing fine, thank you. How about yourself??? Rule 15: Do not ask for a reward. I will give rewards, however if you ask me for, it will not be given. It is rude to ask if you are getting something for good behavior. You should be good and try your best because you are trying to better yourself, not because you are anticipating a reward. If you ask no one will receive a reward. Rule 16: You must complete your homework everyday. Homework will b e turned in each day for each subject by every student with no exceptions. Rule 17: Subject transitions will be swift, quiet, and orderly. When we are in transition from one subject to the other, the change will be swift, quiet, and orderly. We should be consistently able to turn from one book or assignment to another, complete with all homework and necessary materials, as quickly as possible The opportune amount of time to spend in transition should be less than ten seconds, and we will work toward a goal of seven seconds. Rule 18: Be as organized as possible. You will make every effort to be as organized as possible. Rule 19: When homework is assigned, do not moan or complain. When I assign homework, there is to be no moaning or complaining. This will result in more homework. Rule 20: When a substitute teacher is present, all class rules still apply. While you are with a substitute teacher, you will obey the same rules that you follow when I am with you. (I know this is hard, but it is important.) Rule 21: Follow the specific classroom protocols. We will follow certain classroom protocols. We will be organized, efficient, and on task. In order to do so, we will follow these rules: A. Do not get out of your seat without permission. Exception: If you are sick, leave immediately. B. Do not speak unless: 1. You raise your hand, and I call on you. 2. I ask you a question and you are responding. 3. It is break or lunch. 4. I instruct you otherwise (for example, during group work.) Rule 22: You may bring a bottle of water to class; you may not leave for a drink of water during class. Rule 23: Know all teachers?? names and greet them in the hall by name. Quickly learn the names of other teachers in the school and greet them by saying things like, ??Good morning, Mrs. Graham,?? or ??Good afternoon, Ms. Green. That is a very pretty dress.?? (Note: If you are in line with the rest of the class, you are not 2 allowed to speak to the teachers at that time because the no-talking rule is in effect. You should speak to other teachers if you are entering or leaving school, on break, on an errand, or changing classes.) Rule 24: Keep yourself and the restrooms clean and germ-free. Flush the toilet and wash your hand after using the rest room. When in a public rest room, get a paper towel before washing your hands. After washing your hands, use the paper towel to turn off the faucets and to press the dispenser to get another paper towel to dry your hands. (Or use the towel to press the button to start the dryer.) The last thing you want to do is touch areas with clean hands that others have touched with dirty hands. Rule 25: Greet visitors and make them feel welcome. We will often have visitors to our school. If someone is coming to visit our class, I will send two students to the front door of the building. You will have a sign welcoming the person. When our visitor arrives, you will shake hands, tell him or her who you are and welcome the person to our school. You will then take the visitor on a small tour of the building before bringing him or her to the classroom. Rule 26: Do not save seats. If someone wants to sit down, let him or her. Do not try to exclude anyone. We are a family, and we must treat one another with respect and kindness. Rule 27: Do not stare at a student who is being reprimanded. If I or any other teacher in the school is speaking to or disciplining a student, do not look at that student. You wouldn??t want others looking at you if you were in trouble or being reprimanded, so don??t look at others in that situation. If you are the student I am talking to, do not get angry or fuss at students who are looking at you. Let me know and I will handle the situation. Rule 29: The ABC??s of etiquette. A. When you first sit down for a meal, immediately place your napkin in your lap. If your silverware is wrapped in a napkin, unwrap it as soon as you sit down and place the napkin in your lap. B. When you are finished eating, place your napkin on the table to the left of your plate. Place it loosely beside the plate. Don??t crumple it, because you don??t want to seem untidy. Don??t fold it too neatly, because you don??t want the restaurant to think you assume they are going to use it again. Never leave your napkin on your chair. This implies that the napkin is too dirty to be left on the table. Also, in some cultures, leaving the napkin on the chair is known as a way to say that you don??t intend to return to the restaurant again. C. Never place your elbows on the table. D. Use one hand to eat, unless you are cutting or buttering food. Never have your fork in one hand and a glass in the other. E. Do not lick your fingers. There is a napkin provided for the purpose of cleaning your fingers. There is no need to lick yourself clean. F. Do not smack your lips and chew noisily. G. Do not chew with your mouth open. 3 H. Do not talk with your mouth full. Sometimes people will place a hand over their mouth and talk anyway. Don??t do that. Wait until you have swallowed your food to speak. I. If something is caught in your teeth, don??t go in after it; wait until you are in the rest room to remove it. J. Do not slurp. K. Do not play with your food. L. If you drip your fork, napkins, or anything else on the floor, do not pick it up. If is very rude and unsanitary to lace something on the table that has been on the floor. If you pick up something that has dropped and hand it to a waiter, then you will need to excuse yourself and wash your hands before continuing with your meal. The best way to handle a situation when something has dropped on the floor is to ask a waiter for a replacement; leave the old one on the floor. M. You are to use your utensils for eating almost everything. Here are ten types of foods you may use your hands to eat 1. Pizza 2. Bacon 3. Cookies 4. Bread (Always tear off a bite-sized piece to eat. If you are going to use butter, never butter the whole piece of bread; butter the piece you tore off, and eat that before tearing another piece.) 5. Corn on the cob (It is appropriate to eat across instead of eating around.) 6. Hot dogs, hamburgers, and sandwiches (including breakfast biscuits) 7. French fries and chips 8. Fried chicken 9. Asparagus 10. Small fruits (like grapes on a stem), apples, oranges, carrots, etc. N. Never reach over someone??s plate to get something. You should say, ??Will you please pass the salt??? O. Never start eating off your tray until you are at your seat. P. When we are eating at a restaurant, you are not to begin eating until everyone at the table has received their fool. Q. You should never complain if the line is too long, the food isn??t good, or if there is a wait. You don??t want to be negative to the point where you spoil the enjoyment of the event for others. R. If you are unsure which silverware to use, simply start with the fork, knife, or spoon that is the farthest from your plate. On the left, you will have your salad fork on the outside and your dinner fork on the inside. On the far right, you will have your soupspoon, beside it you will have the soon your will use to stir your coffee or tea, then your salad knife, and then your dinner knife. The utensils above your plate are to be used for dessert. 4 S. When you are finished eating, do not push your plate away from you. Leave it where it is in the setting. T. Never place a piece of silverware that you have used back on the table. Leave it on a plate or saucer. U. If you didn??t use a utensil, do not place it on a plate or saucer when you are finished. Just leave it where it is. V. Always look a waiter in the eyes when you are ordering, asking a question, or saying thank you. W. Make a point to remember the waiter??s name when he introduces himself to you. Use his name as often as possible throughout the course of the meal. X. If you have to go to the restroom, you should stand up and say, ??Excuse me,?? as you leave the table. Y. When you are offered desserts or asked a question such as ??What sides would you like??? or ??What dressing would you like for your salad??? it is best to ask, ??What are my options??? That way, you aren??t going through a process of naming things the restaurant might not have. Z. Never talk to waiters or waitresses as if they are servants. Teat them with respect and kindness, and remember, they are the ones who are fixing your food and bringing it to you. You do not want to be on the bad side of a waiter. Rule 30: After dining in the cafeteria or elsewhere, be responsible for your trash. After we eat, we will clean up after ourselves. This includes cleaning off the tables and making sure we haven??t left any trash on the floor or around the eating area. It is important to be responsible for your trash no matter where you are and to be sure not to litter. Rule 31: In a hotel room, leave a tip for the hotel workers who clean your room. When we stay in a hotel room, it is appropriate to leave a tip on the pillow for the hotel workers who are responsible for cleaning the room after our stay. Two or three dollars per night is an appropriate amount, depending on the cost of the room. Rule 32: On a bus, always face forward. When we ride on a bus, we will always sit facing forward, we will never turn around to talk to other students, stick anything out of the windows, or get out of our seats. When we exit the bus, we will always thank the bus driver andtell them to have a good day. Rule 33: When meeting new people, shake hands and repeat their names. When we go on field trips, we will meet different people. When I introduce you to the people, make sure that you remember their names. Then, when we are leaving, make sure to shake their hands and thank them, mentioning their names as you do so. Rule 34: When offered food, take only your fair share. Whenever you are offered food, whether it is on a buffet or treats in class, never take more than your fair share. You never want to be greedy and try to get more than you should, not only because it is wasteful, but also because it is disrespectful to others when you do not leave enough for them. Rule 35: If someone drops something and you are close to it, pick it up. 5 Whether we are in school or on a field trip, if someone drops something, pick it up and hand it back to them. Even if they are closer to the object, it is only polite to make the gesture of bending down to retrieve the item. Rule 36: Hold the door for people rather than letting it close on them. If you approach a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through. Rule 37: If someone bumps into you, say excuse me, even if it was not your fault. Rule 38: On a field trip, enter a public building quietly. Rule 39: On a field trip, compliment the place you are visiting Rule 40: During an assembly, do not speak or call out to friends. During an assembly, do not speak and do not look around and try to get the attention of your friends in other classes. We must uphold an image that shows we have our act together. Rule 41: At home, answer your phone in a polite and appropriate manner. Rule 42: When returning from a trip, shake the hands of every chaperone. These people have gone out of their way for you, be respectful and appreciative. This goes for anytime we have a chaperone for anything. Rule 43: On escalators, stand to the right, walk to the left. (In stairwells and hallways, walk on the right) When we are on field trips and we have to go up escalators, we will stand to the right. That will give other individuals who are in a hurry the option of walking up the left-hand side of the escalator. When we are going to enter an elevator, the subway, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter. This also goes for exchanging classes. Rule 44: When walking in line, keep your arms at your sides and move quietly. When in a line, walk single file, two to three feet behind the person in front of you with your arms at your sides. You should face forward at all times. There will be absolutely no talking. Rule 45: Never cut in line. Rule 46: No talking in a movie theater during the movie. Rule 47: Do not bring Doritos into the school building. Rule 48: If any child in this school is bothering you, let me know. I am your teacher, and I am here to look after you and protect you. I am not going to let anyone in this school bully you or make you feel uncomfortable. In return, I ask that you not take matters into your own hands; let me deal with the student. Rule 49: Stand up for what you believe in. You shouldn??t take no for an answer if your heart and mind are leading you in a direction that you feel strongly about. Rule 50: Be positive and enjoy life. Some things just aren??t worth getting upset over. Keep everything in perspective and focus on the good in your life. Rule 51: Live so that you will never have regrets. If there is something you want to do, do it! Never let fear, doubt, or other obstacles stand in your way. If there is something you want, fight for it with all of your heart. If there is something you to do, go for it and don??t stop until you make it happen. If there is something you want to be, do whatever is necessary in order to live out that dream. 6 Rule 52: Accept that you are going to make mistakes. Learn from them and move on. Rule 53: No matter what the circumstances, always be honest. Even if you have done something wrong, it is best to admit it to me, because I will respect that, and oftentimes I will forget and disciplinary measures because of your honesty or at the very least reduce the measures, significantly. Rule 54: Carpe diem. You only live today once, so don??t waste it. Life is made up of special moments, many of which happen when caution is thrown to the wind and people take action and seize the day. Rule 55: Be the best person you can be. 7 ??TXTÓÉ??ÎÄ?â????ÏÂÔØ:
