Durham Library Media Center Long Range Plan 2017 - 2018
Welcome The mission of the Pendleton Elementary School Library Media Center is to develop life-long learners and users of information through reading, critical thinking, research, and digital citizenship. Standards The 21st Century Learner Standards and the SC Curriculum standards along with teacher collaboration will be used to select appropriate curriculum related read-alouds. The new ISTE Standards will be used to help students develop technology skills. Behavior Management Plan The library should be a safe and inviting place for all patrons. In order for all students to be able to learn and enjoy the library resources, all students will use the following rules and procedures. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Listen actively. Raise your hand. Show Respect Take Care Be Brave
Students will be given Library GROWL tickets for making good choices. Students who do not follow these two rules will be warned, and if the problem continues to occur we will then move to the clip chart. Behavior Clip Chart Guidelines Off the Chart! (Polka dots) After the student has moved to outstanding 5 different times their clip will be retired to Off the Chart status. Their original clip will stay here the remainder of the year and they will receive a new special clip. Outstanding! (Purple) Student clipped up twice for showing great behavior or making great choices. This is a great level to end the day on. Great Day! (Pink) Student clipped up one time for showing good behavior or making good choices. This is a good level to end the day on. Ready to Learn! (Green) Students begin each day here. The student did not get in trouble and clip down or go above and beyond to clip up. Warning! (Yellow) Student clipped down as a warning of bad behavior. If your child clips down, please discuss the behavior with them. Teacher’s Choice! (Orange)
Student clipped down twice because of a poor choice. The student had to miss part of their recess and sit silently during lunch (teacher will choose what students do during this missed time of recess).
Parent Contact (Red) Student had to move to red for making very poor choices. Student had to miss part of recess and sit silently at lunch for two days. Teacher will contact parent through email, note, phone call etc. Office Referral (Black) Students that had to move to black made very poor choices after multiple chances. Administrator will decide the punishment at this stage. Long Range Outlook
