Class Meeting, December 6

Our homeroom holds a class meeting once per week. Each homeroom class at St. Paul does this so we can give our students leadership opportunities, discuss issues at St. Paul, and set goals for ourselves to improve. The class meetings are completely student run and I sit back to observe while once in a while adding my opinion. My students had some good ideas that I wanted to share ...

Things we are doing well:

• Respecting each other
• Recognizing and stopping bullying
• Improving behavior in special classes (gym, art, music, computers, Spanish)
  

Things we could work on:

• Helping each other
• Including all our peers
• Less talking out of turn
• Stop saying pass ... volunteer more!

Goals for this week:

• Respecting all teachers and students (even substitute teachers)
• Boost our creativity and humor
• Recycle
• Be more productive
• Watch our conduct (behavior) at all times

After reading over the classroom notes, I realized that these ideas and goals not only apply to 6th graders but also adults. Just some things to think about and to work on as we journey through our days.
