Guidelines for Developing Effective Rules You should have no more than 6 rules

Rules should be specific and refer to observable behaviors

Guidelines for Success vs. Classroom Rules
Guidelines for Success are basic attitudes, character traits and behaviors that we envision for students that will help shape them for the rest of their lives.
These are different from classroom rules. Guidelines are not as easy to define in behavioral terms.
Classroom rules should be definable in specific behavioral terms. You will be demonstrating for students what it looks like to follow the rules and what it looks like when the rules are not followed.
Guidelines for Success are defined and used primarily for your school-wide PBIS and are on display around the school. They should also be displayed in every classroom, and teachers should be using and referring to them.
Classroom rules can be linked to the guidelines. For example: “In our classroom, the rule of ___ is going to help you be dependable.”
