Chewing Gum I am writing this assignment because I was chewing gum in school. 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." 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, DailyTeachingTools.com.

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. By not being on time, you miss information that you might need later, and you disturb others. ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, DailyTeachingTools.com.

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. 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. ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, DailyTeachingTools.com.

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. 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. Learning is the most important thing in life, something that can be fun, but not to be taken lightly. ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, DailyTeachingTools.com.

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. Certain mistakes can be expected and therefore overcome rather easily. However, larger problems, such as breaking major school rules (like fighting) should not be viewed as acceptable. Corrections to such mistakes need to be made quickly by the student. The real key is having the desire (motivation) to change the way you behave. After you decide that you want to improve, it helps to set several goals. Goals can help guide you toward meeting the new expectations that you have for yourself. The best advice we can give you is to begin looking at what you can do to improve. Set some goals to help yourself bring about positive change. ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, DailyTeachingTools.com.

Silliness What Did I Do? I was being annoying by acting silly. How Does My Actions Affect the Class? When I clown around during a serious part of class, it distracts other members of the class. They have to stop learning and listen to the teacher deal with me. Other students are negatively affected by my actions. They want to learn, but it makes it harder to learn when I am clowning around. How Do My Actions Affect Me? By my silliness, I show how immaturely I can act. The teacher loses respect for me and has to treat me like a small child. I know I am not a small child, but I will get treated like one when I continue to be silly. The teacher might have to call my parents, and I could be punished. What Should I Have Done? I should keep my silly thoughts and actions to myself or tell a friend during lunch or after school. What Will I Do Next Time? I will stop annoying the class with my silliness. If I have trouble controlling my silliness, I will tell the teacher so we can resolve the problem. ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2011 by Chad Manis, DailyTeachingTools.com.
