Discipline plan:
In the PE classroom (gym or outside, or hallway), the student will follow the following plan if they are disruptive:
Daily incidents:

1st incident: warning
2nd incident: student will sit out of the activity
3rd incident: I will call the parent and leave a message after the class
is over. The parent and I will work out a way for the child to
work successfully in the PE class.
If the same child is disruptive day after day, a call to the parent will occur, and the parent and I will work out a better plan for the child.
If you have any problems with the planned discipline, please contact Mrs. Plaetz soon.
Please feel free to come in and watch your child’s elementary class any time that you would like. I welcome any input or suggestions.
