My teachers have told me that gum chewing would not be allowed, but I was chewing it anyway. The rule about chewing gum appears in the Student Code of Conduct. It states, "Chewing gum is not allowed on campus due to damage caused to carpets and furniture.

4 " Writing this assignment is one of the ways my teachers are reminding me that it is against school policy to chew gum while in school. I am also aware that the next time I am caught, there will be further consequences. I know that chewing gum at our school is against the rules and that if I choose to chew gum anyway, I am willfully breaking the rules. _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, You may distribute copies of this to YOUR students but NOT to other teachers.

5 Late to Class You are being disciplined for being late to class. Read this improvement lesson. The purpose of this lesson is to help you improve your behavior. Why Being Late to Class Is Wrong When you are late to class, you are not being considerate of others. It is hard for your Teacher to start teaching when everyone is not present. Coming into class late also disturbs every one. Other students have to wait until you get your materials ready. Your Teacher may have to tell you what page to turn to or what happened while you were not there.

6 By not being on time, you miss information that you might need later, and you disturb others. _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, You may distribute copies of this to YOUR students but NOT to other teachers. Manners Good manners are not only a natural expression of kindness and consideration; they are a passport to the affections of others. Did you ever notice how many popular girls and guys seem to have natural grace and polite manners? Not "people pleasing," but a warm approach and style when socializing or just being with friends.

7 Sloppy or rude manners don't lead to popularity. They just turn people away or turn them off. People still get judged by their manners. First impressions still count a lot. Since not everybody has time to really get to know how wonderful you are underneath, chances are you will often be remembered by your manners instead. It's unlikely that any attractive guy or girl will ever tell you how your sloppy manners or crude behavior quickly killed their interest in you. But, like it or not, your manners will have a lot to do with how you make it through life, at play, at work, as well as in love.

Classroom Behavior Classroom behavior is essential to creating a successful learning environment. Proper behavior should be maintained throughout an entire school. When students are in the hallways they are to walk in an orderly manner and speak in a low voice especially during class time. When traveling around the school, all students must walk, for safety reasons.

9 Plus, no running is allowed in the hallways. When students are on school property, they are to respect other students, the school staff, and themselves. Our school is a wonderful school. All those involved in the education process need to be reminded that education is a privilege not to be used! Teachers are here to teach, and students are here to learn. No one should be allowed to interfere with that process. As students, we have a very high calling at our school, one that can be reached. We need to do our best to take advantage of the wonderful experience we have to learn.

10 Learning is the most important thing in life, something that can be fun, but not to be taken lightly. _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, You may distribute copies of this to YOUR students but NOT to other teachers. Learning from Mistakes We usually take pride in being as accurate as we can with most things we do. It makes us feel good to be successful. The school is a place where you can make mistakes and learn from those errors without suffering harsh penalties.
