Here is the list of behaviors that the children and I came up with this morning that we expect everyone to follow when we are reading together on the rug:
1. We keep our bodies (hands and feet) to ourselves.
2. We are quiet when someone is reading or talking.
3. We look at the book or at the person who is talking.
4. We raise our hands if we want to talk and we wait to be called on. We don’t shout out answers because that will stop our friends from thinking.
Please talk to your child about these rules. We wrote them today as a guideline for reading together but they are really expectations for anytime we are on the rug doing any whole group lesson or meeting. Ask your child if they have an easy time or a hard time following these rules. If they have a hard time, discuss what they might do to help themselves meet these expectations.
