As part of building our learning community, we spent some time discussing what makes a Great Classmate! Working in groups, the students brainstormed what a great classmate is, does, says and is not.
Here are some of the student's ideas:
A Great Classmate Is...
Responsible, cares about people, friendly, kind, respectful, nice, helpful
A Great Classmate Does...
Work together, talks nicely, listens, is helpful, shares, cooperates
A Great Classmate Is Not...
A bully, secret teller, mean, rude, puts down others, takes things that isn't theirs, selfish
All of the student's ideas have been compiled into a Class Promise, which our class will abide by.

Our Promise to Each Other
When we care about each other
and our classroom, we share
what we have, listen carefully,
help each other learn, work hard
and have fun together.
We understand that everyone makes
mistakes, that we stand up for
ourselves and others, and when
someone asks us to stop, we stop.
This is who we are even when no
one is watching!
