With Whole Brain Teaching, students learn & memorize these classroom rules with gestures.
*These are the standard WBT Rules.
http://wholebrainteaching.com/Whole-Brain-Teching/First-Steps/Five-Classroom-Rules.html
Rule #1: Follow directions quickly.
(the gesture: make your hand shoot forward like a fish)
Rule #2: Raise your hand and wait for permission to speak.
(the gesture: raise your hand, then pull it down next to your head and make a talking motion.)
Rule #3: Raise your hand for permission to leave your seat.
(the gesture: raise your and, and then make a little walking figure with your index and middle finger.)
Rule #4: Make smart choices.
(the gesture: tap one finger to your temple as you say each word.
Rule #5: Keep your dear teacher happy.
(the gesture: hold up each thumb and index finger out like an "L" framing your face; bob your head back and forth with each word and smile really big!)
I love these posters! They are bright and cheerful but get the message across! They fit so nicely with my owl themed classroom! Thank you so much for sharing!
For now, just have Owl Word Wall Cards & Owl Alphabet Posters in Manuscript and Cursive... I plan on making more though! Are there any particular posters you'd be interested in??

I was wondering if you could make some of the other WBT signs that go along with the rules? Like "Class, Yes" and things like that! I LOVE your design!

These rules are so cute. Is it possible to change a couple of the rules? I love the template.

I would like to purchase your borders, so that I might fill them with any text I want. Is that possible?

Hello Michelle! I love the rules and my team is planning on using them this year! I was wondering if you had time to make a fifth rule with the cute design that said Rule #5 "Make your teacher and classmates proud" Thanks! Jaime

I love your owl stuff for the classroom, I was wondering if you had more, I want a calendar and other stuff to decorate with. I just love the owls, is there a blank sheet I can buy from you that has just the owls so I can make name tags and other things I have in mind.
I hate to ask you this, but I LOVE your WBT owl rule posters. I am using them in my room and attaching them vertically with ribbon. I was wondering if you could use the same template as the first page of the download (the one with the striped background that says WBT classroom rules with your nme and blog) and make it just say Our Classroom Rules. I wanted a poster for the top of the ribbon saying that but I want it to match your posters I am using. Thanks!
